Gorgeous female nude from the 1940s, executed in Indian ink on a rigid support and signed by the artist Salvietti. The drawing depicts a figure shown from behind, semi‑reclining, rendered with a quick yet controlled stroke characteristic of the graphic style of the period. The essential lines precisely describe the volumes of the body, while the shaded areas, created through a measured use of ink, give depth to the composition without weighing it down. The immediacy of the gesture and the formal clarity suggest a drawing from life, typical of artistic practice of those years. The artist’s signature appears at the lower right. Presented in a frame with gilded decoration that enhances its sobriety, the work is in perfect condition.
