Untitled is a 1937 ink by Henri Matisse, held at Museum of Modern Art.
The image depicts a black and white etching of a tree with a few leaves, surrounded by other trees and a building in the background. The etching is done in a simple yet elegant style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The tree in the foreground is the main focus of the etching, with its branches stretching up towards the top of the page. The leaves are sparse, but they add a touch of green to the otherwise monochromatic scene. In the background, there is a building with a tall spire, which adds depth and context to the etching. The etching is a beautiful example of Matisse's work, and it showcases his ability to create simple yet elegant compositions.
