Untitled is a 1942 watercolor by Alfonso Ramirez Fajardo, depicting Market, held at Museum of Modern Art.
You see a busy street scene: people in bright clothes, musicians, food stalls, and a horse-drawn cart under a hot sky. The artist used watercolor in thin, see-through layers—called glazing—to build up the colors slowly. This makes the light feel soft and warm, like late afternoon. No one in the crowd stands out; it’s just the energy of the day. To see more works like this, look up the technique watercolor, glazing.
Alfonso Ramirez Fajardo (1920–1969) was a Colombian artist.
