Dans les années 1920 Emilie Charmy réalise d'extraordinaires nus féminins, célébrés par les écrivains de l'époque. Colette écrit ainsi de Charmy qu'elle est la "servante magistrale d'une chair féminine", au "pinceau subtil, sans artifices et guidé par une lucide passion". La peintre s'est ici inspirée d'une photo de celle qui fut son amie et son amante.
