Untitled is a 1910 ink by Alfred Kubin, held at Museum of Modern Art.
The painting depicts a solemn figure standing on a platform, surrounded by a crowd of people. The figure is dressed in a long, dark robe and appears to be looking out at the crowd. In the background, there are buildings and trees, but they are not clearly defined. The painting is done in pen and ink on paper, with a focus on bold lines and shading. The use of cross-hatching creates a sense of depth and texture, adding to the overall mood of the piece. The artist's use of dark colors and heavy lines creates a sense of solemnity and gravity. The painting is held at The Museum of Modern Art.
Alfred Leopold Isidor Kubin (10 April 1877 – 20 August 1959) was an Austrian artist, printmaker, illustrator, and writer of a single novel, The Other Side. Kubin is considered an important exponent of Symbolism and Expressionism.
