Untitled is a 1925 ink by Käthe Kollwitz, held at Museum of Modern Art.
The image is a lithograph of a young girl's head and shoulders. She has a serious expression and her hair is pulled back, with a few loose strands framing her face. The girl is centered in the image, with her head tilted slightly to the right. The lithograph is rendered in dark lines and shading, with a subtle texture that suggests the artist's use of the medium. The background is a light beige color, which provides a neutral contrast to the darker tones of the girl's face and hair. The image is a poignant portrait of a young girl, and it invites the viewer to consider the artist's use of lithography to create a sense of depth and emotion. To learn more about the artist's technique, look up lithography.
