| 'Nude Woman Asleep' (c.1828-30) by William Etty; Private Collection |
I think this painting of William Etty, born on 10 March 1787, is beautiful. Again a painter who is unknown to me. Etty was an English artist, who was best known for his paintings of nudes. He studied under Henry Fuseli at the Royal Academy School and privately under Thomas Lawrence. His drawing is considered to be faulty and incorrect at times but nevertheless he holds a secure place among English painters.
