Untitled is a 1895 ink by Henri Rousseau, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows a person riding a horse through a tangled forest. The trees are thick and twisted, and the ground is covered in roots. The rider holds a spear, looking focused ahead. The artist used a single brownish color for everything, making the scene feel flat and dreamlike. The lines are simple but full of energy. Check out lithography to see how this print was made.
