1902
watercolor
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1902 watercolor by James Ensor, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a messy bedroom with a bed in the foreground. A person is sleeping under blankets, their face half-hidden. Outside the window, a chaotic street scene unfolds with tiny figures and bright colors—reds, blues, and yellows—contrasting the cozy room. The artist used loose lines and splashes of color, almost like a quick sketch with added watercolor. The window scene feels dreamlike, while the bedroom stays simple and grounded.
