123. Nude with Scarf [1935]

Iosif Iser gradually developed a deep sense for the human being, focusing primarily on the female model. His work is divided into cycles dedicated to odalisques, Spaniards, colombines, ballerinas, or nude studies on the bodies of his muses. The synthetic line, through which the painter summarizes shapes and volumes and with the help of which he transcribes the entire chromatic palette, reveals to us this time, Iser's protagonist sitting on a chair, posing for the artist in an intimate setting. If in the case of odalisques we face statuesque poses that showed sensuality and specific costumes made of trousers and transparent veils; in the present work we observe the fact that the artist opted for the representation of the naked body, subtly covered by the thin scarf. The protagonist appears positioned leg over leg, with her right arm resting on the armchair and her left arm leaning on its backrest. From her left hand spills the veil that instinctively covers the belly area. The atmosphere of familiarity is given off both by the subject, and by the pictorial manner chosen by the artist. The background is reduced to a few broad strokes, placed randomly, in which the painter addressed various shades, passing from orange to blue. We will see that, although his peregrinations have long ended, the motifs are repeated many times, and certain elements are transferred to other works. Especially the eastern nuances will also appear in works like this one, emerging under subterfuges like the incongruent background. Thus motivated, Iser's choices appear to us as idealizations of his reveries and a pretext for studying the female model again.
