Untitled is a 1946 ink by Max Beckmann, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This is a small book cover with a black-and-white drawing inside. The image shows a chair with a person sitting in it, but the figure is simplified and a bit distorted. The background has a rough, sketchy look with some faint lines and shapes. This is part of a set of 15 prints called *Day and Dream*, made in 1946. The artist used a technique that lets them draw directly on stone, then press paper onto it. Next, check out lithography to see how this kind of printmaking works.
