Sterling Boyd Strauser (American, 1907–1995)Seated WomanSigned and dated 63 bottom right, oil on Masonite.48 x 36 in. (121.9 x 91.4cm)together with:Male Nude at RestOil on thick paperboard.Executed early 1950s.24 x 47 1/2 in. (61 x 120.7cm)Each unframed(2)PROVENANCE:The Artist.Private Collection, Princeton, New Jersey (by descent in family).note:"With his rich series of female nudes, Strauser extended a long tradition in modern painting going back to Matisse and Bonnard. These stylized figures are strange and fantastic creatures with a self-conscious awkwardness and tension of pose pushing towards abstraction. The flat areas of near-monochromatic color capture the velvety luminous quality of feminine skin, yet the complex group arrangements of bodies and heads suggests human alienation and solitude." - Sterling Strauser: A Modernist Revisited, p. IX.
