Untitled is a 1928 crayon by Jules Pascin, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows two people sitting side by side. The person on the left is leaning back, one arm resting on the back of a stool. The person on the right holds a long object like a stick or ruler, dressed in a loose, draped outfit. The lines are loose and quick, with lots of scribbly marks around them. The artist used a soft, sketchy style—almost like a quick drawing. The paper has a light gray tone, and the lines vary from dark to faint, giving it a rough, unfinished feel. Next, check out lithography to see how this technique works.
