Untitled is a 1920 ink by Francis Picabia, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This collage looks like it’s made from old magazine clippings and paper. A man’s face is in the center, with a top hat and a pipe. Around him are cut-out legs in high heels, a folded coat, and a small figure peeking out from a sleeve. Words like "Christmas," "1920," and "Picabia" are stuck on in different fonts. The scraps of paper and ink give it a messy, playful feel. The words seem to mix holiday cheer with random phrases, like "Vive le Loustic" and "Bon Noël." Check out The Museum of Modern Art to see more works like this.
