Nude with drapery is a 1921 oil by Suzanne Valadon, a Post-Impressionism work, depicting naked woman, held at National Gallery of Victoria.
This painting shows a nude woman standing on a striped rug. She is holding a piece of fabric in her left hand, and her right hand is on her hip. The woman has short hair and is facing to the left. The background is a room with a chair and a window. The woman's body is painted in a naturalistic style, with attention to the curves and contours of her figure. The fabric she is holding is draped over her arm, and her hand is relaxed as she holds it. The painting's use of color and light creates a sense of warmth and intimacy. The artist, Suzanne Valadon, was known for her portraits of women, and this painting is a great example of her work.
