Untitled is a 1960 watercolor by Francisco Toledo, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a person sitting with their back to us, wearing a dark jacket and red pants. Their arms rest on their knees, and the colors are mostly dark blues, pinks, and browns. The background looks like a rough, dark shape with a bit of writing in Spanish across the top left. The handwritten note suggests this might be about a conversation or a memory tied to the person’s life. The loose, expressive brushstrokes give it a raw, personal feel. Check out the technique: watercolor, glazing to see how layers of paint create depth.
Francisco Benjamín López Toledo (17 July 1940 – 5 September 2019) was a Mexican painter, sculptor, and graphic artist.
