Untitled is a 1931 ink by Howard Cook, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a bird's-eye view of a landscape with a biplane flying over it. The plane is positioned diagonally, with its wings stretching across the top half of the image. Below the plane, a patchwork of fields and farmland stretches out, dotted with small buildings and roads. The image is rendered in a range of grays, from light to dark, creating a sense of depth and texture. The artist's use of cross-hatching and engraving techniques adds a level of detail and intricacy to the image. The painting is a beautiful example of early 20th-century American art.
