Nude [recto] is a 1918 ink by Childe Hassam, held at National Gallery of Art.
This lithograph shows a woman sitting sideways, her back to us. Light catches her shoulders and arms. The lines are clean and strong. Hassam made this in 1918. He often used lithography to show movement. Here the quiet pose still feels alive. Lithography prints the image from stone or metal. Hassam carved smooth shapes. It lets the paper keep a soft, warm look. Find more lithographs by Hassam, Childe.
