Untitled is a 1921 ink by Arthur Bowen Davies, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a group of nude figures in a tropical setting. There are four figures, all female, in various poses. One is standing, one is sitting, and two are lying down. The background is a light beige color, and there are some palm trees and other foliage visible. The figures are drawn in a loose, expressive style, with bold lines and minimal detail. The overall effect is one of freedom and joy, as if the figures are celebrating their bodies and the natural world. If you're interested in learning more about this style of art, you might want to look into the work of Arthur B. Davies, the artist who created this piece.
