Description
A female nude in a studio setting — the model posed formally, the studio context acknowledged in the title — is rendered in Hiratsuka's direct woodblock manner. The 1972 print belongs to his late-career figure studies, the nude subject approached with the same graphic economy he brought to his architectural work. The studio designation distinguishes this from his outdoor nude subjects, grounding it in the working conditions of printmaking.
