Untitled is a 1909 ink by Heinrich Nauen, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows a dark, stormy beach at dusk. Three leafless trees stand in the foreground, their branches twisted. The water is rough, with small waves crashing against the shore. In the distance, a few buildings peek through the rain. The artist used sharp lines to show the wind and movement in the trees. The sky is full of swirling clouds, making the scene feel tense. Next, check out how this was made with etching, drypoint.
