Untitled

Man Ray (Emmanuel Radnitzky) · 1915

You're looking at Untitled — a drawing by Man Ray (Emmanuel Radnitzky), nineteen fifteen. Charcoal — burnt wood, sitting loose on the surface, which is why so little early drawing in it survives. In the picture, look for the abstract shapes. Man Ray (Emmanuel Radnitzky) was part of the surrealism movement.

Medium Charcoal on paper · Dimensions 24 3/8 x 18 3/4" (62 x 47.6 cm) · Credit Mr. and Mrs. Donald B. Straus Fund
