The monochromatic palette of browns and blacks, with lighter areas of the paper serving as highlights, builds a dramatic atmosphere. Contrasts of light and shadow model the form, emphasizing the curves of the body and its natural proportions. The fragmented approach, especially in the areas of the head and limbs, gives the drawing a modern and stark character. The figure’s face is outlined only symbolically, with a strong emphasis on the eye, which seems to make contact with the viewer. This single detail lends the drawing psychological depth and intimacy. The simplification of forms and the lack of unnecessary details direct attention to the essence of the representation – the naked body as a source of strength and expression.
