Lucien Gibert was a French sculptor and artist best known for his sensitive treatment of the human figure and his commitment to classical and modern figurative traditions. He produced many sculptures as state commissions and numerous medals for the French Mint. His groups with massive stone figures adorn the stadiums of Charléty, Courneuve, Rue Championnet, and other works can be found in numerous museums across France. His works on paper are relatively rare, and reflect his innate understanding of form and composition. Gibert was recognised for his contribution to French art when he was made Commander of the National Order of Merit.

This original red chalk drawing on paper by the French sculptor and artist Lucien Gibert (1904–1988) dates to around 1935 and is signed by the artist in the lower right. Executed during a formative period of Gibert’s career, the work demonstrates his deep engagement with the classical female nude and his sculptural understanding of the human form.
The drawing depicts a seated nude woman, captured in a private, introspective moment as she gathers her hair. Gibert’s confident use of red chalk allows for soft modelling and subtle tonal variation, emphasising the rounded volumes of the body and the natural rhythm of the pose. The figure is compact yet dynamic, with carefully observed anatomy and a strong sense of weight and balance—qualities that reflect the artist’s parallel practice as a sculptor.
