While DeCamps "Woman Drying Her Hair (1898)" may appear at first glance to be a conventional nude, its composition, technique, and context suggest that DeCamp intended it as a deep investigation into form and style- a study rather than a narrative work. Through his study in Europe like Munich, Germany and mentorship provided by Frank Duveneck, DeCamp refined his ability to portray the figure in a way that was both perpetually rigorous and resonant to anatomical paintings in America.
