Untitled is a 1904 watercolor by Emily Sargent, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a street scene with a few people walking and sitting. The buildings look old, with domes and arches, and the colors are mostly soft—light blues, browns, and greens. A large stone column stands in the middle, and the ground is uneven with patches of grass. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving it a sketchy, unfinished feel. This style was common in watercolors, where artists often layered thin washes of paint. Look up watercolor, glazing to see how artists build up colors like this.
