Untitled is a 1887 gouache by Georges Seurat, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting looks like a dark, rough sketch with lots of smudged lines. The colors are mostly black, gray, and a little white, blending together in a fuzzy way. You can barely make out shapes—maybe a person or a figure—but it’s hard to tell. The artist used a mix of crayon and paint to create this loose, scratchy effect. It’s not a finished piece but more like a study or practice work. Next, check out gouache to see how this soft, opaque paint works.
Georges Pierre Seurat (UK: SUR-ah, -ə, US: suu-RAH; French: ; 2 December 1859 – 29 March 1891) was a French post-Impressionist artist.
