Untitled is a 1956 ink by Bernard Cheese, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows three figures standing on a tilted, yellow-roofed building with a dark, dotted pattern. The roof leans sharply, almost like it’s sliding off. In the background, a bright moon hangs over a dark, wavy sea with a faint ship silhouette. The brushstrokes are loose and scratchy, giving the whole scene a rough, almost sketchy feel. The colors are muted—mostly browns, yellows, and grays—with the moon standing out as the only bright spot. Next, check out lithography to see how this print was made.
Bernard Cheese (20 January 1925 – 15 March 2013) was an English painter and printmaker, a fellow of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers. His works are found in internationally important collections in the UK and US.
