Untitled is a 1920 ink by Karl Walser, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows five people in a loose group. The man on the left holds a bundle of sticks and a small axe, wearing a long coat and knee breeches. Next to him, a woman carries a basket of fruit and vegetables. The other three men stand close together, dressed in patchwork coats and hats, looking like they’re talking. The background is plain, keeping all the focus on the figures. The artist added color by hand to the lithograph, giving the clothes and fruit a soft, warm look. The sketch feels quick and lively, like a snapshot of a moment. Next, check out how this was made using lithography.
