Untitled [standing female nude leaning on her left elbow] 1955 - 1967

This charcoal drawing by American artist Richard Diebenkorn, created between 1955 and 1967, depicts a standing female nude leaning on her left elbow. The drawing is characterized by loose, gestural lines that capture the form and posture of the model. The artist's signature style, marked by a focus on figuration and an emphasis on line and form, is evident in this work. Diebenkorn's use of charcoal creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, highlighting the contours of the body. This sketch exemplifies his exploration of the human figure, a recurring theme in his artistic output.
