Untitled is a 1976 graphite by Alex Katz, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This pencil drawing on paper features a woman with long dark hair, gazing directly at the viewer. Her hair is depicted in a dark shade, while her face and clothing are rendered in lighter tones. The background of the drawing is a plain white. The artist's use of pencil creates a sense of subtlety and nuance, with gentle shading that adds depth to the subject's features. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the woman is lost in thought. For more works by this artist, explore the collection of Alex Katz.
