Untitled [seated woman leaning her head on her left hand] 1955 - 1967

This untitled drawing by Richard Diebenkorn, created between 1955 and 1967, depicts a seated woman in loose, gestural lines. The subject's pose, with her head resting on her hand, evokes a sense of contemplation or repose. The simplicity of the lines and the overall composition are characteristic of Diebenkorn's early work, which often explored themes of figure and form in a minimalist style. The drawing's intimate scale and focus on the individual figure highlight the artist's interest in capturing the essence of human presence. This piece exemplifies Diebenkorn's exploration of figuration and abstraction in the mid-20th century.
