Untitled is a 1914 watercolor by Elie Nadelman, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows a tall, skinny figure with long arms and legs walking beside a leafless tree. The person’s body looks almost see-through, with just faint lines marking clothes and limbs. The background is a light, cloudy wash—like a pale sky or fog. The figure’s head is small and simple, with no face. The tree’s bare branches stretch out behind them, making the whole scene feel quiet and empty. If you like this style, look up Elie Nadelman for more of his work.
Elie Nadelman (born Eliasz Nadelman; February 20, 1882 – December 28, 1946) was a Polish-American sculptor, draughtsman of the School of Paris and a collector of folk art.
