Untitled is a 1951 ink by Kenneth Armitage, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows two dark, blocky figures standing close together. Their arms hang down, and their legs are wide apart. The background is light with soft pink and brown streaks, and the whole thing looks like it was made with quick, rough brushstrokes. The artist used a printing method called lithography, which lets ink sit on smooth stone or metal. This piece feels more like a sketch than a finished drawing. Next, check out how lithography works.
