A solitary female figure emerges from a densely worked surface of thick, gestural brushstrokes, reflecting the influence of Abstract Expressionism that defined Segal's early painting career. The muted, earthy palette and roughly textured paint application give the woman a raw, almost sculptural presence on the canvas. This work captures a pivotal moment in Segal's artistic development, just before he would abandon painting in favor of the plaster figurative sculptures for which he would become internationally renowned.
