Nude Study, Girl Sitting on a Flowered Cushion is a 1924 by George Bellows, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This image depicts a nude woman sitting on a cushion adorned with flowers. Her body is turned to the left, with her right leg crossed over her left. Her right arm is bent, and her hand rests on her head, while her left arm is positioned on her left leg. The woman's body is rendered in a range of tones, from light to dark, with visible shading and texture. The woman's pose and the floral cushion create a sense of intimacy and comfort. The use of shading and texture adds depth and dimension to the image, drawing the viewer's attention to the subject's form and expression. The Cleveland Museum of Art.
