The picture Reclining Nude (Lying Nude) dates from 1886. It depicts a young man lying naked on a staircase, his eyes closed. For the viewer, it is not clear whether he is asleep or in a semi-awake or dream-like state. Half on a staircase, half on a plateau, only lying on a cloth, bared and bathed in bright light. Baca-Flor has captured an intermediate moment in this painting, the viewer gets no indication of a before or after and also the stairs seem to end with the plateau in the void. He shows a moment of innocence and youth, the transition of a youth into manhood. Carlos Baca-Flor was a South American painter. Born in 1968 in Peru, he grew up in Chile from the age of one. He was best known for his portraiture. In 1890 Baca-Flor moved to Paris, where he died in 1941.
