Untitled is a 1947 ink by André Masson, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This lithograph looks like a swirl of black lines on white paper. It feels loose and free, almost like doodling. The marks twist and turn, with no clear shape or figure. Masson made this during a tough time. After World War II, he didn’t want to paint pretty pictures. Instead, he let his hand move without planning. That shows in the wild lines. It’s not like other art where everything looks real. Try looking at it like music—just shapes and rhythms. See more of his work at The Museum of Modern Art.
