Untitled is a 1790 ink by Kitagawa Utamaro, a Romanticism work, depicting Beach, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This print shows a quiet riverside scene with people dressed in colorful robes and hats. A few women walk together near a tall tree, while others sit or stroll along the shore. In the background, boats float on calm water, and a few buildings peek out near the water’s edge. Notice how the artist uses soft colors and simple lines to show movement and nature. The people look relaxed, and the landscape feels peaceful. Look up *cross-hatching* to see how artists create depth with lines.
