Untitled is a 17 ink by Graham Sutherland, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows a strange, stretched-out horse lying on its side. Its legs are twisted, and its body looks like it’s been pulled thin. The background is a flat yellow, and the horse’s fur is made of rough, textured lines in brown and black. The artist used a method that lets them press ink onto stone and paper. It’s not smooth—it’s got a scratchy, uneven look. If you like this style, check out lithography.
