The female nude in profile, created with pastel technique, can be placed within the lyrical trend of Hungarian portrait painting between the two world wars. The composition is restrained, the tone of the background and the subtle transitions of the skin almost merge, while the white headpiece and the dark necklace create a plastic counterpoint. The model's facial expression is calm, slightly dreamy; the mood of the artwork is intimate and meditative. The painter demonstrates excellent drawing skills and a sensitive sense of color, while behind the formal simplicity lies the idealized image of contemporary female beauty. Although the artist's identity is unknown, based on its quality and harmony, it can be linked to the academic circles of the 1920s and 30s.
