Untitled is a 1952 ink by Dorothy Dehner, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image shows a black-and-white print with sharp lines and deep shadows. Three curved shapes—maybe a face, a bowl, and a shell—sit on a rough, textured surface. The background has jagged edges like a broken wall or a cave. Light streaks in from the right, making the shapes stand out. The artist used a mix of etching and scratching to create the texture. Tiny lines fill some areas, adding depth without color. Look up engraving to see how artists carve into metal to make prints like this.
Dorothy Dehner (1901–1994) was an American artist, born in Cleveland.
