Untitled is a 1955 ink by Édouard Pignon, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image shows bold, uneven shapes in bright colors. A red figure stands out against a yellow-orange background, with black outlines and splashes of green and white. The scene looks chaotic but has a rough balance—like something caught in motion. The artist used a mix of thick black lines and soft washes of color, giving it a rough, textured feel. This kind of printmaking often involves biting metal plates with acid to create different tones. Look up etching to see how artists like this make prints with acid and needles.
