Untitled is a 1914 watercolor by Marie Laurencin, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a woman wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a high collar. Her hair is drawn in blue strokes, and her face is simple—just a few lines for the eyes and mouth. The pink and gray colors are loose, like quick brushstrokes. The artist used pastels and pencil to keep it light and sketchy. The hat looks like it might be from an earlier time, but the style is modern for its day. Check out Marie Laurencin for more of her playful portraits.
