About Untitled

The artwork titled “Untitled,” created by Jean Cocteau, belongs to the Expressionism art movement and falls within the genre of nude painting (nu).

The artwork depicts a stylized representation of a nude female figure seen from the back. Vibrant color panels of blue, green, yellow, purple, and pink form the backdrop, creating a visually striking contrast against the figure. The woman, partially draped with a yellow cloth around her waist, lifts her arms to adjust a colorful headscarf or headpiece. The simplicity and fluidity of the lines emphasize the organic form of her body, while the bright and bold palette reflects the expressive and emotional intensity characteristic of Expressionism. The signature of Jean Cocteau is visible in the lower right corner, further adding to the authenticity of the piece.
