Untitled is a 1930 graphite by Gaston Lachaise, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image depicts a nude woman sitting on the ground with her legs crossed. Her left hand is resting on her left knee, while her right hand is raised to her chin. The woman's facial expression is neutral, and her hair is pulled back. The drawing is rendered in pencil on paper, with bold lines that define the subject's contours. The artist's use of simple yet expressive lines creates a sense of elegance and poise. The simplicity of the drawing belies the complexity of the subject, inviting the viewer to contemplate the beauty of the human form. For more works by this artist, explore Gaston Lachaise.
