Untitled is a 1959 by Iyola Kingwatsiak, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows two owls facing each other. They’re simple shapes—black bodies with white faces and dark speckles on their wings. Below them is a small brown circle, like a footprint or an egg. The artist used a woodcut method, cutting shapes into stone and pressing ink to make the print. The owls look calm, almost like they’re watching each other.
