Untitled is a 1972 ink by Édouard Pignon, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a wild mix of bold colors and rough lines. Bright blues and yellows clash with reds and whites, making it feel chaotic but energetic. Shapes don’t quite look real—some resemble animals, others like abstract blobs. The words *"Picasso Soleil"* (which means "Picasso Sun") are written in the corner, but the rest is pure movement and color. The artist used a printing method called lithography, which lets ink sit on smooth and rough parts of a stone or metal plate. This helps create those sharp, uneven lines and big blocks of color.
