Large Nude, painted by Pierre-Auguste Renoir in 1907, presents a full-length reclining female figure stretched across a softly draped support, her form modeled in warm flesh tones and bathed in dappled light. The brushwork is generous and feathered, the palette built on rose, ivory, and golden ochre in the manner of his late nudes. By this point Renoir was working into his final years in the south of France, and the monumental reclining nude had become the central preoccupation of his late practice. The picture distills a hushed studio reverie into a luminous late-Impressionist composition.
