Untitled [seated nude with her leg crossed and leaning on her left arm] 1955 - 1967

Richard Diebenkorn’s Untitled [seated nude with her leg crossed and leaning on her left arm] is a masterful example of figure drawing, capturing the essence of the human form with expressive lines and delicate shading. Created between 1955 and 1967, the drawing showcases Diebenkorn’s signature style, known for its gestural, fluid lines and emphasis on form and volume. The subject, a seated nude, is rendered with a sense of both intimacy and detachment, highlighting the artist’s fascination with the complexities of the human figure. The work is a testament to Diebenkorn’s skill as a draftsman and his ability to convey both anatomical precision and emotional depth through simple yet powerful lines.
