WALTER RICHARD SICKERT. Reclining Nude (Thin Adeline)

Reclining Nude (Thin Adeline). Artist: Walter Richard Sickert (British, Munich 1860-1942 Bathampton, Somerset). Dimensions: 18 1/8 × 15 1/8 in. (46 × 38.4 cm). Date: 1906.
In the fall of 1906, Sickert painted a number of models who posed for him in his Paris hotel room, later recalling that "the alcove of the beds in some of the rooms are beautifully lit." A group of these pictures, which are reminiscent of keyhole views by Degas and Bonnard that Sickert knew, were included in an exhibition held at Galerie Bernheim-Jeune in Paris in early 1907. In the accompanying catalogue, this work was called <i>La Maigre Adeline</i> (Thin Adeline).
