A refined nude study by Victorian painter William Edward Frost (1810–1877), known for his graceful depictions of the female form. Rendered in pencil, the figure is delicately modelled, standing in quiet contrapposto with one hand resting against a support and the other gently curved around the waist. The drawing reflects Frost’s academic precision and lyrical sensitivity.

Framed in a classical black and gilt wooden frame, this piece offers a glimpse into the academic traditions of 19th-century British art, where beauty and discipline met on paper.
