Untitled [seated male nude] 1955 - 1967

Richard Diebenkorn's "Untitled [seated male nude]" is a 1955-1967 charcoal drawing that showcases his signature style of figuration. Known for his bold, gestural lines, Diebenkorn simplifies the human form, leaving the head blank, focusing on the body's contours. This drawing, with its minimal detail and emphasis on anatomy, epitomizes Diebenkorn's early work, which often explored the relationship between the body and space. The simplicity of the drawing allows for a sense of intimacy and a focus on the figure itself.
