Delaunay painted three versions of Nude Woman Reading between 1915 and 1920 and each one is a spectacular transformation. The first is a depiction of a woman seemingly lost in thought with her back turned to the viewer, and her voluptuous figure and pose make for a striking element. Her golden hair flows down her bare back and the colours from her room burst forth from the canvas. (http://books0977.tumblr.com/post/145389151667/nude-woman-reading-nu-%C3%A0-la)
