Untitled [seated woman resting chin on left hand] 1955 - 1967

This charcoal drawing, created by Richard Diebenkorn between 1955 and 1967, features a seated woman resting her chin on her hand. The artist’s signature style is evident in the use of loose, gestural lines, which capture the subject’s pose and form with a sense of dynamism and immediacy. The simplified, almost skeletal, representation of the woman’s figure creates a sense of quiet contemplation. This piece reflects Diebenkorn’s exploration of figuration within the context of Abstract Expressionism.
