Untitled is a 1915 crayon by Wilhelm Lehmbruck, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch depicts a nude woman with long hair, facing to the right. Her body is turned slightly, with her head and shoulders facing forward. The drawing is done in crayon on paper, with bold lines and shading that give the figure depth and dimension. The woman's pose is relaxed, with her weight shifted onto one leg. Her arms are crossed over her chest, and her facial expression is calm and serene. The background of the sketch is a light beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the darker tones of the woman's body. The artist's use of crayon creates a sense of texture and roughness, adding to the overall sense of intimacy and vulnerability in the sketch.
