The artwork “Nude with Dove,” created in 1928 by Tamara de Lempicka, is an oil painting on canvas. It belongs to the Art Deco movement and falls under the genre of nude painting (nu).
The artwork depicts a nude female figure in a poised and elegant manner, typical of Tamara de Lempicka’s distinctive style. The woman is portrayed with smooth, sculptural forms and a sense of strength and grace. The dove near her head adds a symbol of peace and purity. The background is composed of subtle drapery in deep, shadowy hues, creating a striking contrast with the luminous skin tones of the figure.
