Nude Descending a Staircase

The canvas is painted in ochres and browns Suggesting a figure, the staircase coming down Be it masculine or feminine is for your mind to see The artist’s title denotes it descends in nudity. The body parts are not displayed so exact Demonstrating movements that appear somewhat abstract Stare as long as you like at the naked body parts It now hangs in Philadelphia at the Museum of Art. The name of this Modernist display is recognized by many Although knowing what it looks like – you may not find any “Nude Descending a Staircase, no 2” is a title known well Painted by Marcel Duchamp in nineteen and twelve. Although some will be disappointed when they finally take a look This painting is a masterpiece in my artistic book. http://www.philamuseum.org/collections/permanent/51449.html
