Untitled is a 1836 watercolor by Richard Henry Nibbs, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolour painting depicts a serene beach scene. In the foreground, a small boat sits on the shore, while a larger boat is anchored in the water. A few figures are scattered about, some standing and others sitting. The sky above is a soft grey, with a few birds flying in the distance. The painting's muted colour palette and gentle brushstrokes evoke a sense of calmness. The artist's use of light and shadow adds depth to the scene, drawing the viewer's eye to the boats and figures.
