Striding Nude, Blue Dress is the title of paintings by Euan Uglow (1932–2000), one of which was unfinished.

Background

Euan Uglow (1932–2000) was a British painter best known for his paintings of nude women and still lifes. [2] [3] [4] He painted only from life, often taking several years to complete his artworks. [3] [5]

His nude models typically posed in unnatural and often uncomfortable positions. [3] [5] [6] Uglow would use markings in his studio, including chalk lines and plumb lines, to maintain consistency across painting sessions. [3] [5] [7] His pictures, like those of his tutor William Coldstream, often contained measurement marks. [8]
