Untitled [profile of a model] c. 1957 - 1958

This ink drawing titled *Untitled [profile of a model]* by Richard Diebenkorn is a study in line and form. Created in the late 1950s, it captures the essence of a figure through simplified, gestural strokes. The minimal detail and emphasis on the silhouette evoke a sense of immediacy and spontaneity. The artwork exemplifies Diebenkorn's experimentation with abstract expressionism during this period. The piece’s focus on line and form is characteristic of the artist's broader exploration of figuration and abstraction in his work.
