Waterscape in neutral tones with sleeping female

This painting, by Mahoud Ahmad, is composed of a mixture of flesh tonalities as the off-whites, beiges, and pale yellows represent the entirety of the color scheme. The sleeping nude female takes up almost the sum of the canvas lying vertically across the watery ground plane. A man stands to the right of the composition wearing nothing but rolled up trousers and leans against a tall dowel as he wads through the water in a state of half-sleep.

Mahoud Ahmad

Location: Currently unknown. Possibly from the collection of the Iraqi Museum of Modern Art (the former Saddam Center for the Arts)
