Nude woman bends by a stream in a dense green forest, drying her legs
Detailed Description
A nude woman is depicted in a lush, green natural setting, bending over a body of water. The woman, with light-toned skin and reddish-brown hair tied up, is positioned slightly to the right of the center. She is leaning forward, looking down towards the water, and appears to be drying her lower legs or feet with a small white cloth held in her hands. She sits or kneels on a grassy bank that slopes gently towards the water. The scene is dominated by dense green foliage and trees that fill the background and the left side of the composition. A narrow stream or pond, dark with reflections, runs across the lower foreground. Sunlight appears to filter through the trees, creating lighter patches on the grassy bank around the woman and in the distant foliage. To the far right, behind the woman, a patterned piece of fabric or garment is visible on the ground, adding a touch of color to the otherwise verdant landscape.
