The female nude presented here, "Nu couché au miroir”, was created while Charles Camoin travelled with Albert Marquet on a fifteen-day trip to Saint Tropez. The artists focused on the theme of femininity in a series of erotically charged nudes, using prostitutes as models. Taking inspiration and direction from Manet's scandalous “Olympia”, they attempted to similarly excite the minds of their viewers. Painted at the beginning of 1904, the work is one of Camoin's very first nudes. The paradoxical combination of its soft pastel shades and gentle nuances of colour with the immediacy of the subject creates a stylistic-thematic tension. If the pose of the model and the sensuality of his composition sought proximity to Manet, the expressionist palette and the rapid, gestural brushwork were dedicated to the Fauves. (For more on the provenance of the painting, see the text for lot 3239).
