Artist, German, 1877 - 1947

The sculpture is of a standing nude female figure. The subject is depicted in a naturalistic pose with arms down at her sides and her head turned slightly to the right. The sculpture is made from a bronze material, giving it a metallic brown appearance with a textured surface that conveys the form and contours of the human body. The figure stands on a simple base that appears to be part of the same material as the rest of the sculpture.
