Untitled is a 1938 ink by María Catalína Otero Lamas, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This black-and-white print shows three women sitting on the ground. One woman in the center is holding her hands to her face, looking upset. The other two women sit beside her, one with her head resting on her hand, the other looking down. In the background, a group of people is gathered around tables, eating and talking. The lines are sharp and the shading is heavy, giving the scene a dramatic feel. The artist used a technique that focuses on strong contrasts between light and dark areas. Look up chiaroscuro to learn more about this technique.
María Catalína Otero Lamas was an Argentine artist.
