Untitled is a 1996 graphite by Frédéric Bruly Bouabré, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows a small, simple boat floating in a curved shape. The water is a pale yellow, and the boat has a single person inside, facing forward. The background is a soft pink, and the whole scene is framed by a thick black border with handwritten text in French. The title written above reads *"Le Symbole de la Sublime Navigation,"* which means something like "The Symbol of Sublime Navigation." The words around the edges seem to describe themes of travel or adventure. If you like this style, check out Frédéric Bruly Bouabré.
Frédéric Bruly Bouabré (1923–2014) was an Ivorian artist, born in Idibouo-Zépréguhé.
