1901
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1901 by Maurice Prendergast, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a high collar and puffy sleeves. She’s holding a pinkish-brown umbrella and wearing a wide-brimmed hat with a flower on it. The background is a simple, pale green, and the whole scene looks like it was quickly sketched with soft, wavy lines. The painting uses a technique where colors blend smoothly without sharp edges. This makes the woman’s dress and the background look almost like a watercolor wash. Check out monotype—this is how this painting was made.
Maurice Brazil Prendergast (October 10, 1858 – February 1, 1924) was a Newfoundlander-American artist who painted in oil and watercolor, and created monotypes.
