1940's African American Nude
by Artist Unknown
Capturing both strength and vulnerability, this 1940s oil-on-canvas painting portrays a young African American woman seated in the nude, her gaze a striking balance of patience and impatience. With short, natural afro hair and bold red lips, her expression conveys quiet confidence, while her posture—leaning on her left arm with her right hand resting gently on her lap—exudes both elegance and introspection. Notably, a ring on her finger adds a hint of narrative intrigue. The warm tones of her skin contrast beautifully against the canvas’s background, highlighting the artist’s mastery of light and texture.
Signed by C. Jones and enclosed in its original gilt frame, this timeless work embodies both the beauty of the female form and the complexities of emotion.
