Vincent van Gogh Reclining Nude Femme nue A tendue sur
Vincent van Gogh: Reclining Nude (Femme nue etendue sur un lit), Vincent van Gogh, January-March 1887, Oil on canvas, Van Gogh painted very few nudes. Because he was so poor, hiring models was usually out of the question. In this work, the female body is presented as a curious mixture of alluring and revolting. Curvy hips and closed eyes are traditional signs of sensuality, but the exposed body hair and coarse facial features certainly went against 19th-century conventions of beauty. Overall (oval): 23 1/2 x 29 in. (59.7 x 73.7 cm)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Vincent van Gogh's rare piece, "Reclining Nude (Femme nue etendue sur un lit)" painted between January and March of 1887. Van Gogh's financial struggles often prevented him from hiring models, making this depiction of the female body even more remarkable. The artwork presents a fascinating juxtaposition between allure and repulsion. While the curvaceous hips and closed eyes traditionally symbolize sensuality, the exposed body hair and coarse facial features challenge the beauty standards prevalent in 19th-century society. The oval-shaped canvas measures 23 1/2 x 29 inches (59.7 x 73.7 cm), allowing viewers to fully immerse themselves in van Gogh's unique perspective on nudity. This particular painting stands out among his vast collection as one of the few nudes he created during his lifetime. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of van Gogh's ability to capture raw emotions through brushstrokes and colors that seem to dance across the canvas. His artistic vision transcends societal norms, inviting us to question our own perceptions of beauty. This print is part of Liszt Collection's diverse range of art reproductions that allow art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate masterpieces like never before
