DescriptionHighly detailed image of a nude woman seated on plinth marred with splattered paint. Her back is towards the viewer as she wraps her left hand around her waist; her hair is smoothly brushed around her neck and gathered over her right shoulder. She has two small star-like tattoos on her right thigh and we can see the bottom of her left foot is soiled. A soft gradation of light emanates around the figure and fades to black along the perimeter.ProvenanceThe Hall Family Foundation, Kansas City, MO, 2016;
