About the piece
Created in 1881 by the Brazilian master Rodolfo Amoedo during his time in Paris, this oil on canvas work is a superb example of late 19th-century academic realism. The composition focuses on the play of light across the figure's back, creating a striking contrast against the dark, moody background that emphasizes the form's elegance and technical precision.
