Untitled is a 1943 ink by Louise Bourgeois, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows a row of small, greenish shapes stacked in a grid, like a window view. Below them is a red band with wavy lines, and beneath that, a building with blue windows and a dark door. The edges look rough, almost torn, with patches of red and blue bleeding together. The artist wrote a note at the bottom: *"During the war: shortage of food in Easton."* That’s all we get—no extra story, just a quiet hint of hard times. If this style of printmaking interests you, look up woodcut.
