Untitled
1927
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1927 by Jean Hugo, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows two simple, blocky figures standing on a grassy hill. One is standing, the other leaning in close. Behind them, a rocky cliff rises, and a small tree sits on the left. The colors are flat and bright—green grass, blue sky, and pale shapes for the people and rocks. The figures look almost like cut-outs, with no shading or depth. This is because the artist used stencils, a technique where shapes are cut out and inked through. Next, check out Jean Hugo to see more of his work.
Jean Hugo (French pronunciation: ; 19 November 1894 – 21 June 1984) was a painter, illustrator, theatre designer and author.
