Nud de femeie is a 1921 by Theodor Pallady, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
The painting depicts a nude woman seated on a couch, her body turned to the right. Her left arm is bent, and her right hand rests on her left breast. The couch is adorned with a pink and green patterned fabric, and a yellow pillow is visible behind the woman's back. In the background, a framed picture hangs on the wall, although its details are not discernible. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation, with the woman's gentle pose and the soft colors used in the artwork contributing to this sense of calm. The painting is reminiscent of the works of Theodor Pallady, an artist known for his exploration of the human form and his use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of volume and depth.
