About Untitled

The artwork, titled “Untitled” and created by Jean Cocteau in 1960, falls under the Expressionism art movement and belongs to the genre of design.

In the artwork, one observes an abstract and intricate composition rendered primarily in thin, fluid lines of varying colors, including yellow, blue, red, green, and black. The lines entwine and interweave to form the facial profiles of two intertwined figures, displaying a sense of dynamic motion and emotional intensity characteristic of Expressionism. The simplicity and the deliberate use of minimal yet vibrant lines evoke a deep sense of emotion and psychological depth, further emphasized by the whimsical and fragmented nature of the figures. The signature of Jean Cocteau and the date “1960” are inscribed on the bottom left of the artwork, anchoring it in its historical context.
