1920
ink
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1920 ink by Käthe Kollwitz, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This woodcut painting depicts a somber scene of a group of people gathered around a person lying on a table. The figures are dressed in dark attire, and their faces convey a sense of grief and mourning. The central figure on the table appears to be deceased, with their head resting on their arm. The artist's use of bold lines and stark contrast between light and dark creates a powerful and emotive image. The overall mood of the painting is one of sorrow and loss, inviting the viewer to reflect on the human experience. For more on the technique used to create this piece, explore the world of woodcut.
