: ~Norbert Lynton, William Scott, Thames and Hudson, London, 2004, cat.no.279, p.412 (ill.) ~~'The chair faces us; the woman is turned three-quarters to her left, so that the leg can rest on a vaguely indicated bed. Her left hand rests on that knee. Her right arm comes down from her shoulder to the seat of the chair. All is quiet, neat, self-explanatory, including even the head with its unusually full and pleasant account of her face. None the less, distortions and other deviations soon become apparent. Most obviously, the arms are too short and slight for the rest of the body. The chair looks firm but is difficult to read. This remains one of William Scott's most calmly and constructively composed representations of a naked woman, yet its interest lies partly in the questions it raises.' (Norbert Lynton, William Scott, Thames and Hudson, London, 2004, p.412)~
