Untitled is a 1914 graphite by August Macke, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This pencil drawing shows a lively interior scene. There are several people, some wearing hats, and a dog. The room has a high ceiling and what looks like a window with curtains. The drawing is done in quick, expressive lines. The artist has used a range of shading techniques to add depth and texture to the scene. You can see the roughness of the paper in some areas, which adds to the overall sense of spontaneity. If you like this kind of expressive drawing, you might want to look up the work of August Macke.
