ng Nude (Nautch Girl)" is a celebrated painting by Hungarian artist Károly Lotz, one of the most influential representatives of the Europeanism movement in the 19th century. The painting, dated circa 1880, showcases Lotz's mastery in figure drawing and his distinctive style, which combines elements of the Romantic and Realist traditions, as well as his infatuation with exotic sceneries triggered by his extensive travels to North Africa and the Middle East.

The piece particularly focuses on a young female subject, referred to as a 'nautch girl'. Nautch girls were professional dancers in South Asia, specifically in India, who would perform at courtly functions and occasions of public entertainment, adding a powerful cultural and socio-historical context to this artwork. The term 'nautch' is a Colonial era Anglicized version of 'nach', derived from the Sanskrit word 'Nritya', meaning 'dance'. The painting is a projection of the 19th century European imagination of Eastern cultures, epitomizing the allure and exoticism that marked the Orientalism movement.

Composed primarily of soft, warm hues, the painting displays the nautch girl in a sitting posture. She is depicted fully nude, a daring representation for the period when it was created, expressing both the vulnerability and strength of womanhood. Her gazes away from the spectator, which adds an air of mystic and aloofness, making her seem remote yet enthralling.

"Young Nude (Nautch Girl)" is considered a significant work in Lotz's oeuvre, showcasing his extraordinary talent in portraying the human figure and his noteworthy contribution to the Orientalism movement in 19th century European art.
