Nude Study in Blue is a 1900 oil by Henri Matisse, a Post-Impressionism work, depicting Naked Woman, held at National Gallery.
The painting features a woman standing in a room, her body turned slightly to the right. She is depicted in a blue hue, with her arms crossed over her chest and her head tilted downward. The woman's pose conveys a sense of introspection, and the blue color palette adds a somber tone to the overall mood of the painting. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, giving the painting a sense of spontaneity. To learn more about the artist's use of color and technique, explore the works of Henri Matisse.
