Untitled is a 1944 graphite by Fabrizio Clerici, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows a man sitting on a stool, playing a cello. His hair is curly, and he’s wearing a loose shirt with puffy sleeves. One hand holds the bow, while the other rests on the cello’s side. Behind him, there’s a tall, curved frame with swirling designs—like a fancy mirror or door. The lines are all drawn with pencil, packed tightly in some spots to make shadows. The man’s face looks calm, but his pose is a little stiff. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build shadows with lines.
