Untitled is a 1964 ink by Benjamin Patterson, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting features four red-outlined shapes, resembling footprints, arranged in a square pattern. Each shape has a number inside: 3 at the top, 2 on the right, 4 on the left, and an illegible number at the bottom. The background is a light beige color. The shapes are drawn with a felt-tip pen, and the numbers appear to be stamped in ink. The overall effect is simple yet intriguing, inviting the viewer to ponder the meaning behind these abstract forms.
