"Reclining Nude" 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 sparked controversy for its explicit content during the Victorian era. "Reclining Nude" exemplifies Etty's skill in rendering the human figure and his ability to imbue his subjects with a sense of sensuality and life.

The painting features a female figure lying in a relaxed, recumbent position, which is a traditional pose in the history of art, often associated with depictions of Venus or other mythological figures. Etty's model is rendered with a focus on the play of light and shadow across her form, highlighting the tactile quality of flesh and the naturalism of her pose. The work is notable for its warm color palette and attention to textural detail, which contribute to the overall sensuality of the image.

As with many of Etty's nudes, "Reclining Nude" would have been both admired for its technical prowess and criticized for its perceived indecency. Etty's commitment to life drawing and the study of the human form was central to his artistic practice, and he often defended his choice of subject matter as a noble pursuit in line with the traditions of the Old Masters.

The painting is part of a larger body of work by Etty that helped to challenge and expand the boundaries of acceptable subject matter in British art. It reflects the tensions of the time between academic standards of ideal beauty and the emerging realism that would come to characterize modern art. "Reclining Nude" remains an important example of Etty's legacy as a painter who was unafraid to confront the mores of his time and who helped to elevate the status of the nude in British art history.
