Untitled is a 1935 ink by Ada V. Gabriel, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows a small traveling show wagon with a sign that reads "Albert Pyneback." Inside, two people—one standing, one sitting—peer out the open door. The wagon has posters of shadowy figures and a sign warning "Pass on Left." A dog lies on the ground in front, and a suitcase sits nearby. The artist used simple lines and shading to make the scene feel lively yet a little mysterious. The wagon’s name and the posters suggest it might be some kind of traveling entertainment. Next, look up lithography to see how this print was made.
Ada Vorhaus Gabriel (July 28, 1898 – 1975) was an American female Mid-century modern painter and lithographer.
