        "description": "Lachaise's highly personal sculptures of voluptuous nudes, inspired by his wife Isabel Nagel, display his idealized conception of the female figure with full, rounded breasts, arms, and thighs surrounding a delicate, slender waist. The artist's drawings, in which a single unmodulated line describes contour, are spontaneous and direct. Although this drawing was not a study for a sculpture, the figure has a three-dimensional quality suggested by the changes in the width of the line. Lachaise's drawings, like his sculptures, are dazzling combinations of force and grace, simultaneously heroic and erotic.",
