Study of a Seated Female Nude is a 1954 by Raymond James Coxon, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This drawing features a seated female nude, captured in a simple yet expressive style. The subject sits with her legs bent and feet tucked under her body, with her left arm resting on her thigh and her right arm on her knee. Her head is turned slightly to the right, and her facial expression is neutral. The drawing is rendered in a loose, gestural style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the subject is lost in thought. The simplicity and elegance of this drawing make it a compelling work of art. If you're interested in learning more about the artist's technique, you might want to explore the concept of cross-hatching.
