Mulher de pé

1912–15; cast 1930
Not on view
Lachaise provavelmente usou como modelo Isabel Dutaud Nagle, a americana com quem se casou em 1917 e que foi sua musa durante toda a sua vida, para compor as características anatômicas desta figura. O artista, que havia começado sua carreira como escultor em Paris no início do século XX, viajou aos Estados Unidos em 1906 seguindo Isabel e viveu lá até sua morte. Em sua nova pátria, converteu-se em um dos principais escultores de figura humana. A obra Mulher de pé foi sua primeira escultura em tamanho natural. Para Lachaise, o torso redondo, as costas e as nádegas planas, os pés cônicos da figura representavam o arquétipo da mulher ideal.
