Untitled is a 1936 crayon by Joan Miró, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing shows two simple, stretched-out figures—one standing, one crouching—with big, smooth shapes for bodies and limbs. Their faces are almost blank, just lines and dots. In the corners, there are two small, colorful decals: one looks like a bird, the other like a flower in a vase. The lines are loose and wobbly, like quick sketches. The colors are mostly pale, except for those bright decals. It feels more like doodles than a finished picture. Next, check out Joan Miró to see more of his playful, abstract style.
