Untitled is a 2003 silver by Benjamin Cottam, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a small, simple face in the top corner of a blank page. The lines are light and scratchy, like someone drew with a metal point. The person has curly hair, glasses, and a slight smile—just a few quick strokes to suggest them. The artist used a rare method called *silverpoint*, where metal leaves marks on paper instead of paint. It’s fragile and precise, like a sketch meant to be temporary.
