Nude on a Chair (Nu à la chaise) is a 1904 oil by Édouard Vuillard, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
This painting shows a woman sitting on a chair, facing away from the viewer. She's wearing no clothes, and her body is relaxed, with her head tilted slightly to the side. The room around her is softly lit, with a big window behind her that lets in lots of light. The colors are muted, with lots of whites, creams, and pale blues. It's a quiet, peaceful scene. The painting is done in a style that's a bit dreamy and soft, which makes the woman and the room feel very calm and serene. The artist has used a lot of subtle colors to create a sense of depth and atmosphere.
