Untitled is a 1894 ink by Eugène Carrière, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This is a close-up of a face against a dark background. The person’s features are soft and blended, almost like a shadowy silhouette. The light hair and smooth skin stand out against the darker tones around them. The artist used a simple, muted color palette—mostly grays and whites—with no sharp lines. This style makes the face look gentle and dreamy. Next, check out lithography to see how artists like Carrière made prints like this.
