Torso 1932

The story

A bold self-study in which Sher-Gil used her own nude back as the model, set against a framed nude on the wall behind. Painted in 1932, it has been praised for its confident drawing and modelling — and for the way she claims the female nude as her own subject rather than a borrowed one.
