The artwork, created by Rosemarie Trockel in 1985, is titled “Untitled” and belongs to the art movement known as New European Painting. It is classified within the genre of portrait art.
This artwork presents a somber depiction of a face, rendered with a mix of subtle and assertive brush strokes. The visage is set against a backdrop that integrates both soft and bold lines, creating a somewhat melancholy expression. The facial features are detailed, with deep-set eyes and a slightly furrowed brow, drawing the viewer’s attention to the intense gaze. The use of muted colors and stark contrasts adds a depth of emotion and introspection to the portrait. This masterful blend of technique and expression marks Trockel’s notable contribution to contemporary portraiture within the New European Painting movement.
