A striking and sensitively executed original life study of a female nude, drawn from the back, attributed to Colin Moss, one of the most respected British draughtsmen of the 20th century. Executed most likely in charcoal on paper, the work demonstrates Moss’s assured line, tonal control, and deep understanding of anatomy—hallmarks of his lifelong dedication to figurative art.
The drawing is beautifully presented in an original antique Montparnasse frame and is ready to hang.
Charcoal on Paper, 79 x 64cm
