Nude Reading
1928

An etching depicting a reclining nude female figure propped up on her left elbow, with her head resting in her hand. She appears contemplative or introspective. The background features indistinct interior elements, possibly suggesting a domestic setting. The print shows signs of aging with discolored edges and spots. There are handwritten inscriptions at the bottom, including a title, edition number, and signature.
