Untitled is a 1972 graphite by Joe Brainard, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This portrait is drawn in pencil on paper, featuring a person with short, light-colored hair and round, black-framed glasses. They wear a white shirt and a black bow tie, set against a plain white background. The drawing style is loose and expressive, with visible pencil marks and subtle shading that adds depth to the subject's face and clothing. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the subject is lost in thought. To learn more about the artist's techniques and style, explore the works of Joe Brainard.
Joe Brainard (March 11, 1942 – May 25, 1994) was an American artist and writer associated with the New York School.
