The most stunning antique sitting nude by French artist Ludovic Chauviac (1889-1978). Atmospheric vintage nude portrait oil painting on canvas of a woman sitting, signed in the lower left, framed. The wonderful natural tones used by the artist as a backdrop reflect the skin tones. He uses the juxtaposition of light and shadows, blondes and browns to animate this painting, enabling an intimate relationship between viewer and painting. Drawn in by the coy look of the model in a triangular composition, this painting brings the model into the room with that extra touch of personal reality, an insolent boldness, so often hard to achieve when painting nudes. The tonal hues on the model's body are quite stunning and the artist adds more interest with animated brush strokes with some added impasto. But the true delight in this painting is the model's face, her brown eyes look upwards, cheeks slightly flushed and all she wears is red lipstick...
