After completing his studies in fine arts, Columbano left for Paris for a two year residency which was funded primarily by the Countess d’Edla. This support allowed Columbano to set-up a studio on the Boulevard Raspail in Montparnasse. This work, created in January of 1881, was one of the first produced in this studio. The absence of a framed landscape and rendering of natural light suggests the artist’s rejection of naturalism, rendering instead a female nude using tones of greens, ochres and grey.
