Helen Nude, is a bold and highly characteristic screenprint by Tom Wesselmann, combining the sensuality, graphic clarity and saturated colour that define his mature Pop Art vocabulary. The composition transforms the female nude into a striking arrangement of simplified forms, warm skin tones and sharply contrasted areas of colour, creating an image that is both immediately accessible and unmistakably Wesselmann.
At approximately 91 × 94 cm, the work has a strong visual presence and functions almost like a painting rather than a conventional print. The close cropping, flat colour fields and carefully balanced composition give the image a distinctly modern character, while the reclining figure and domestic setting connect it directly to Wesselmann’s celebrated exploration of the nude throughout his career.
The work is part of an edition of 150 and is signed, dated and numbered in pencil by the artist. Presented in excellent condition and professionally framed, it offers a compelling opportunity to acquire a substantial and highly recognisable example of one of the central figures of American Pop Art.
