Vintage mid-century painting signed Woody and dated 1958 in the lower right corner. This original work portrays a nude female figure standing gracefully in shallow water beneath leafy branches, her body gently reflected on the water's surface. The artist captures a quiet, contemplative moment with soft brushwork and naturalistic tones that blend realism with a subtle impressionistic touch.
The composition demonstrates careful attention to light, anatomy, and reflection. The figure's posture - one arm lifted toward the overhanging foliage - adds a sense of movement and natural ease.The palette of warm neutrals, greens, and soft blues evokes the calm and intimacy of an outdoor setting in late afternoon light.
Housed in its original mid-century wood frame featuring a carved bamboo-style motif, the piece retains its authentic period character. The frame's softly aged finish complements organic tones of the artwork, enhancing its vintage appeal. The back shows the original board backing and hanging wire, consistent with mid-century presentation.
Signed "Woody '58" at the lower right. The artist is unidentified, but the confident handling of the figure and balanced composition reflect the influence of mid-century realism naturalist studies common in postwar art.The frame shows gentle wear consistent with its vintage era but remains sturdy and ready to hang .serene and atmospheric mid-century work that captures both the grace of the human and the tranquility of nature. A distinctive addition for collectors of vintage art and postwar era compositions.
