Untitled [seated woman leaning forward and turning her head] 1955 - 1967

This Untitled drawing by Richard Diebenkorn, executed between 1955 and 1967, depicts a seated woman in a loose, gestural style. The artist utilizes quick, expressive lines to capture the figure's pose, with the woman's head turned and her hand resting on her chin. The drawing, done in graphite on paper, highlights Diebenkorn's focus on capturing the essence of the human figure, revealing his masterful use of line and composition. This work exemplifies the artist's exploration of figuration and abstraction in his early career, preceding his renowned "Ocean Park" series.
