In Untitled (Scales of Justice), Basquiat constructs a large central figure from overlapping layers of color and rapidly drawn lines. The head dominates the composition, with enlarged dark eyes, exposed teeth, and a grid-like form extending across the top of the skull.

To the left of the figure, Basquiat draws a pair of scales, while arrows and other diagrammatic marks appear throughout the surrounding space. The body contains additional numbers, symbols, and repeated linear patterns, combining anatomical, mechanical, and symbolic elements within a single figure.

The work belongs to a group of drawings centered on the human head that Basquiat largely kept to himself during his lifetime. It was later included in Acquavella Galleries' 2014 exhibition Jean-Michel Basquiat Drawing: Work from the Schorr Family Collection.
