Untitled: Reclining Nude

Name/Title

Untitled: Reclining Nude

Description

Segal obtained his early artistic training in New York at the famed Arts Students' League. We see classical training here as Segal observed this recling nude model from a rear point of view. We can see Segal's ability to capture perspective and his facility with the quality of line is evident. All the elements -- except color -- are at play: composition, line, value, texture. These fundamentals were the artist's foundation as he further explored his own countenance and the world around him for decades to come.
