Elle

20th-century French School oil on canvas signed Paul Benoit Gaillard (1892-1941) in the lower left corner. The work has texture to the touch.

This Female nude reclines in an interior with bright natural light supported by a varied warm palette. Rounded lines, shadows and detailed reflections make it a modern and realistic work. Certain reddened areas give an impression of intimacy with the model, as does the vulnerability of her position. She lies in comfort surrounded by her art and objects.
