Untitled [seated woman with hands on knees] 1955 - 1967

This ink and wash drawing, created between 1955 and 1967, is a characteristic work by Richard Diebenkorn, a prominent figure in the American abstract expressionist movement. The piece, titled "Untitled [seated woman with hands on knees]," features a seated female figure rendered in a gestural, expressive style. Diebenkorn's use of bold lines and washes of grey and black emphasizes the form and movement of the subject, capturing the essence of the figure rather than depicting it in a realistic way. The drawing is a compelling example of Diebenkorn's exploration of figuration and abstraction in the context of the human form.
