Lady Chatterly St I

Lady Chatterly St I, 1978, by R.C. Gorman presents a sensual figure study executed in delicate sepia and brown ink tones with handwritten literary text accompanying the composition. A woman stands in profile with raised arms, her body rendered with graceful line work and subtle shading, framed by a hatched background that emphasizes her form. This State I etching or drawing reflects Gorman’s exploration of the female figure as both artistic subject and emotional expression, drawing inspiration from literary references. The intimate scale and refined draughtsmanship reveal Gorman’s mastery of classical figure drawing traditions. An exceptional work for collectors of erotic art, figure studies, and Gorman’s more experimental artistic practices.
