Untitled is a 1963 ink by James Strombotne, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows two figures side by side. On the left, a man in a dark coat and sunglasses stands stiffly, his face blank. To the right, a loose, sketchy outline of a reclining nude woman floats in the same space, barely defined. The man’s sunglasses and the woman’s vague lines make the scene feel off-kilter. The whole thing looks like it was drawn quickly, almost like a rough sketch. If you like this style, look up lithography to see how artists create prints like this.
