Benjamin Bennon most prominently worked in the cubist tradition, stretching and fracturing the figures of his subjects in order to take new approaches to their meaning and interpretation. Nearly lost in the fray of bisecting cuts and looping lines is a nude torso, plump and curvy and leaning towards the viewer. The effect of the cubist composition around it is almost like that of a frame. This piece is signed, titled, and dated on the verso and is housed in a gilded silver frame.
