Untitled is a 1932 ink by Josef Scharl, held at Museum of Modern Art.
The image depicts a sketch of a woman riding a donkey, with two men standing behind her. The woman is dressed in a long coat and has her hair tied back, while the men are wearing hats and holding objects that are not clearly defined. The donkey is facing to the right, and the background of the image is a light-colored wall with vertical lines. The sketch is rendered in a simple, yet expressive style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the artist is capturing a moment of everyday life. To learn more about the artist's use of etching, explore the technique of etching.
