The artwork by Angel Zarraga, a Mexican painter, is a striking example of early 20th-century art. Created in 1909, this oil on canvas piece measures 151 x 150 cm and is currently housed at the Colección Andrés Blaisten (Mexico). The painting depicts a woman standing naked in front of another person who is sitting down, while two people are visible in the background.
The woman's pose and the fact that she is standing naked in front of another person make it a provocative and intriguing piece of artwork. This style was more common during the era when nude paintings were widely accepted. The buildings in the background suggest that this painting might have been created during an era when urbanization was on the rise.

Art by color

Ángel Zárraga Argüelles (August 16, 1886 in Victoria de Durango – September 22, 1946) was a Mexican painter. He was a founding member of the cultural organization El Ateneo de la Juventud.
Zárraga was born the son of the physician Dr. Fernando Zárraga and his wife Guadalupe Argüelles in the Barrio de Analco of Durango. While attending the Escuela Nacional Preparatoria in Mexico City, he made his first contacts with the prevailing artistic and intellectual scene, and later studied at the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes (ENBA). His family made possible for him a study trip to Europe in 1904, where he visited and exhibited in Spain, France and Italy. He also visited courses at the Royal Academies for Science and the Arts of Belgium.
In 1906 he exhibited some of his pictures in the Museo del Prado, and in 1907 in an exhibition of the ENBA. He participated in the 1909 Biennale di Venezia and exhibited in the Salon at the Piazzale Donatello, Florence. In 1911 he moved to France for good, and he only returned to Mexico once at the outbreak of World War II for a short time.
After 1921 his work was influenced by Cézanne and Giotto. He also painted murals at the Château de Vert-Cœur and in the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris, and decorated the Mexican embassy in Paris. He also exhibited at the Salon d'Automne, as well as in New York City. As a result of the collapse of the international art market he lost his sponsors and became depressed. During World War II he returned to his home country in 1941, where he painted murals at the Club de Banqueros and in Monterrey Cathedral. He died of pneumonia. A museum of contemporary art in Durango is named after him.
