Untitled [standing female nude with arms raised] 1955 - 1967

This untitled drawing by Richard Diebenkorn, created between 1955 and 1967, depicts a standing female nude with arms raised. The figure is rendered in a gestural, almost abstract style with a focus on form and volume. The artist used black ink and graphite to create the image, highlighting the contours of the body with bold lines and expressive hatching. Diebenkorn's use of simplified form and a limited color palette creates a sense of immediacy and intimacy in this study of the human figure, characterized by his signature style of gestural lines.
