Untitled is a 1925 oil by Edward Hopper, a American Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a tall, shadowy building with a mix of white and dark colors. The structure has a flat roof with a small tower, red chimneys, and lots of windows. A balcony with columns juts out from one side, and the sky above is a smooth, pale blue. The artist used bold light and dark contrasts to make the building look solid and quiet. The way the shadows fall across the walls gives it a mysterious feel. If you like this style, look up chiaroscuro next.
