1894
ink
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1894 ink by Félix Vallotton, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This black-and-white print shows a person in a small boat under a dark, arched bridge. The water looks rough, with swirling lines suggesting waves. Above, a few lights dot the sky, and the bridge’s stone details are carved in sharp lines. The title *Le Suicide* hints at a heavy mood—maybe the boat is sinking. The artist used a woodcut method, which means they carved the design into wood and then printed it. Check out how this woodcut technique works—it’s a whole different way of making art.
Félix Édouard Vallotton (French: ; December 28, 1865 – December 29, 1925) was a Swiss and French painter and printmaker associated with the group of artists known as Les Nabis.
