"Female Nude from the Side" is a painting by the English artist William Etty (1787–1849), known for his depictions of nudes and history paintings. Etty was one of the first British artists to treat nude studies as a serious art form, and his work often focused on the female form, exploring its aesthetic and expressive potential. Although the exact date of creation for "Female Nude from the Side" is not well-documented, it is likely from the early to mid-19th century, a period during which Etty produced a significant number of nude studies.

The painting depicts a female figure seen from the side, rendered with a focus on naturalistic detail and the play of light and shadow on the contours of the body. Etty's approach to the nude was both classical and sensual, drawing inspiration from the Old Masters while also emphasizing the beauty and sensuality of the human form. His work, including "Female Nude from the Side," often sparked controversy in his time due to its explicit content and the perceived indecency of painting nudes.

Etty's technical skill in the use of color and his ability to capture the texture of skin and the subtlety of flesh tones are evident in this work. The painting's composition and the model's pose are reminiscent of classical statuary, reflecting Etty's academic training and his admiration for Renaissance and Baroque art.

Despite the lack of specific information regarding the provenance and exhibition history of "Female Nude from the Side," the painting is representative of Etty's broader oeuvre and his significant contribution to the British art scene of the 19th century. His dedication to the study of the nude paved the way for later artists in Britain to explore similar themes without the constraints of Victorian morality.

As with many of Etty's nudes, "Female Nude from the Side" would have been intended for a private audience rather than public exhibition, which was the norm for such intimate and potentially controversial works during the artist's lifetime. Today, Etty's paintings are held in various public and private collections, and they continue to be studied for their historical significance and their role in the evolution of the treatment of the nude in British art.
