Untitled is a photographic by Léandre Grandmoulin, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
The image depicts a black-and-white photograph of a sculpture, showcasing a woman holding a baby. The woman is seated, with her left arm resting on her lap and her right arm supporting the baby. She is nude from the waist up, with a cloth draped over her lower body. The baby is positioned on her right leg, with its head resting on her right shoulder. The sculpture is rendered in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the textures and folds of the cloth. The overall mood of the image is one of serenity and intimacy, capturing a tender moment between mother and child.
