Untitled is a 1912 ink by André Derain, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting depicts a lively scene of people gathered in a large room. The room features an arched doorway and a high ceiling, with several individuals standing and sitting on the floor. Some are engaged in conversation, while others appear to be watching or waiting. In the foreground, a group of people are seated on the floor, with one person standing behind them. The background of the painting is a light beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the darker tones used in the figures. The use of drypoint technique in this painting adds a sense of texture and depth to the image. To learn more about the artist's use of drypoint, explore the works of André Derain.
