拍品专文

Discussing the sitter for this painting, Thomas Ratzka has noted, "Schad's model for this nude painting was a young Neopolitan woman from the Art Academy whose name he could not recall. The girl returns the viewer's gaze lasciviously, with wide eyes. According to the painter, she was an alcoholic, seldom sober" (op. cit., p. 102).
