Untitled is a 1974 ink by Ellsworth Kelly, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a simple shape: a light gray triangle on the left, fading into a flat white rectangle. The triangle sits at an angle, like it’s leaning against the white background. There’s no color, texture, or movement—just clean lines and a quiet contrast. The artist used a printing method called *embossing*, which makes the triangle slightly raised. It’s not about depth or story—just shape and light. Check out Ellsworth Kelly to see more of his bold, simple work.
Ellsworth Kelly (May 31, 1923 – December 27, 2015) was an American painter, sculptor, and printmaker associated with hard-edge painting, Color field painting and minimalism.
