Untitled (Reclining Nude in Landscape)
1965

A monochromatic ink wash drawing depicting a reclining nude figure, executed with fluid, gestural lines that create a sense of movement and form. The artwork is rendered in shades of black and gray, with the figure's body appearing to merge with the background in some areas, emphasizing the play of light and shadow. The paper shows signs of aging, adding to the artwork's historical character.
