Untitled [seated female nude: side view] 1955 - 1967

Richard Diebenkorn’s “Untitled [seated female nude: side view]” is a graphite drawing created between 1955 and 1967, depicting a seated nude figure in a minimalist style. The artist’s signature gestural lines capture the form of the nude, highlighting the figure's posture and anatomy with loose strokes. Diebenkorn’s use of graphite creates a sense of immediacy, suggesting the artist’s spontaneous response to his subject. The drawing is representative of Diebenkorn’s earlier works, demonstrating his interest in figuration and exploration of the human form.
