Staande naakte vrouw, haar rechterarm opgeheven

David Pièrre Giottino Humbert de Superville's drawing, titled "Staande naakte vrouw, haar rechterarm opgeheven" (Standing Naked Woman, Her Right Arm Raised), was completed in 1803 using chalk on paper. The artwork depicts a young woman standing in contrapposto, characterized by an elegant pose with one arm raised. The artist skillfully employs fine hatching techniques to create the illusion of volume and form in her body. Although the model likely held onto a support to maintain her pose, the artist chose to omit this detail. The classical nature of the pose reflects the artistic traditions of the time, emphasizing the study of the human figure.
