Untitled is a 1957 ink by Inagaki Tomoo, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows a big black cat in the foreground with bright yellow eyes, looking straight ahead. Behind it, a white cat leaps near a tall, skinny streetlamp. The shapes are sharp and flat, with lots of black, gray, and white. The artist used wood to carve the image, then inked it to make the print. That’s why the lines look bold and the colors are limited. Want to see more? Check out woodcut prints to learn how artists carve and ink blocks like this one.
