Untitled is a 1942 watercolor by André Breton, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image looks like a postcard glued onto pink paper. Inside the postcard is a small, colorful building with a sign that reads "Jack l'Éventreur" and "Et Caché." There are handwritten notes in French pointing to different parts of the postcard, like "J'ai salué à six pas" and "Bravait le hibou toujours cloué." The notes seem to tell a story about the building, but it’s unclear what it means. The mix of text and images feels like a puzzle. If you like this kind of mixed-media art, check out The Museum of Modern Art for more works like this.
