This intimate ink and pencil work on paper represents Richter's late-career turn toward drawing, a medium he has revisited with renewed intensity in his nineties. Dated by day in his characteristic titling system, the work reflects his longstanding interest in process and chance, allowing marks to accumulate without predetermined compositional hierarchy. The combination of ink and pencil suggests a layering of gesture and control, balancing spontaneity with deliberate mark-making. As one of a series of dated works from May 2023, it functions almost as a diary entry, placing personal time at the center of artistic meaning.
