Untitled is a 1915 ink by Lovis Corinth, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a chaotic scene with two struggling figures tangled together. One person is on the ground, their body twisted in a fight, while the other stands above, arms raised like they’re wrestling or attacking. The lines are rough and dark, almost like scribbled shadows, with no clear details—just raw movement and energy. The artist signed it in the corner, and the paper has a grainy texture, like pencil on newsprint. It feels urgent, like the scene was drawn quickly to capture the action. Next, check out how this was made using lithography.
Lovis Corinth was a German artist and writer whose mature work as a painter and printmaker realized a synthesis of impressionism and expressionism.
