Untitled is a 1933 graphite by Peter Blume, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This pencil drawing on paper features a man sitting on a chair, surrounded by various objects. He wears a crown, a necklace, and a loincloth, and holds a scepter in his right hand. The objects around him include a hat, a purse, a vase with flowers, and a clock. The man's expression is one of contemplation, and the objects surrounding him seem to be symbols of his thoughts. The drawing is detailed and intricate, with a focus on texture and shading. The artist's use of cross-hatching and stippling techniques adds depth and dimension to the drawing.
