"Frauenstudie" (Study of Women) is a notable painting by the Swiss artist Ferdinand Hodler (1853–1918), a leading figure in symbolism and art nouveau who played a pivotal role in the development of early modernist painting in Switzerland. Hodler's work is characterized by a strong linear rhythm, clear composition, and the use of repetitive motifs, which he referred to as "parallelism," a concept that became a hallmark of his artistic philosophy.

Created during the late 19th or early 20th century, "Frauenstudie" exemplifies Hodler's fascination with the female form and his exploration of its aesthetic and symbolic potential. The painting features a group of women, which is a recurring subject in Hodler's oeuvre, where he often depicted women in various states of repose, work, or intimacy, capturing the essence of their collective and individual experiences.

The composition of "Frauenstudie" is likely to reflect Hodler's interest in both naturalism and idealism. His portrayal of women often transcended individual identity to convey universal themes such as life, death, love, and suffering. The figures in the painting are typically rendered with a sense of dignity and grace, set against a simplified or harmonious background that emphasizes their form and presence.

As with many of Hodler's works, "Frauenstudie" would have been received within the context of a European art world that was grappling with the transition from traditional academic styles to modernist abstraction. Hodler's approach to the subject matter, his technique, and his compositional choices would have contributed to the dialogue about the direction of contemporary art at the turn of the century.

The painting is significant not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its representation of women during a period of significant social change, reflecting broader themes of gender and identity that were emerging in the cultural discourse of the time.

As a work of art, "Frauenstudie" is an important piece within Hodler's body of work and offers insight into the artist's thematic preoccupations and his contribution to the evolution of modern art. It remains a subject of study for art historians and scholars interested in the symbolism movement and the portrayal of women in art history.
