Untitled is a 1953 graphite by Joseph Beuys, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This is a blank sheet of paper with two faint pencil lines. One line is near the top, the other near the middle. Both lines are straight but slightly wobbly, like a hand drawing without much pressure. The paper looks old and yellowed, almost like a sketch left unfinished. The lines are simple but feel intentional—maybe even a little mysterious. If you like this kind of minimal art, check out Joseph Beuys.
