1904
ink
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1904 ink by James Ensor, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a quiet beach scene with a few ships anchored near the shore. The sand looks rough and uneven, and the water is calm with small waves. In the distance, there’s a row of simple houses and some tall grass or reeds. The artist used quick, light lines to keep things loose and sketchy. It feels like a quick study rather than a polished work. Next, check out etching to see how artists like this one create prints with acid and metal plates.
James Sidney Edouard, Baron Ensor (13 April 1860 – 19 November 1949) was a Belgian painter and printmaker, an important influence on expressionism and surrealism who lived in Ostend for most of his life.
