"Seated Woman Drying Her Feet" is a pastel drawing created by French artist Edgar Degas around 1893. This work is part of a series of nudes that Degas produced later in his career, which often depicted women in various states of undress, engaged in intimate, everyday activities. The drawing showcases Degas's masterful use of pastels to capture the nuances of the human form and the subtleties of light and shadow.

The composition presents a woman seated on a low stool or chair, with her body angled away from the viewer, as she bends forward to dry her feet. This pose allows Degas to explore the natural curves and contours of the female body, a recurring theme in his oeuvre. The model's identity is not specified, which is typical of Degas's approach; he was more interested in the form and movement of the body than in the individual characteristics of his subjects.

Degas's technique in "Seated Woman Drying Her Feet" is characterized by his deft handling of pastels, with bold strokes and a rich palette that suggest the texture of the woman's skin and the soft materials surrounding her. The background is typically indistinct, a hallmark of Degas's later works, which places the focus firmly on the figure herself.

This drawing is an example of Degas's innovative approach to composition and perspective, often depicting his subjects from unusual angles and with a sense of immediacy that was influenced by photography and Japanese prints. "Seated Woman Drying Her Feet" reflects the artist's ongoing fascination with the human figure and his commitment to capturing moments of private life with honesty and sensitivity.

As with many of Degas's works, this drawing is significant for its contribution to the development of Impressionism and for its influence on the depiction of the female form in modern art. It is held in high regard for its technical excellence and its evocative portrayal of a simple, yet deeply personal, moment.
