Untitled is a 1927 ink by Max Kaus, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows a quiet, rolling landscape with a winding path cutting through fields. Two bare trees stand on a hillside, one small and thin, the other large and twisted. In the distance, a village sits along a river, with fields stretching toward the horizon. The artist used sharp, scratchy lines to create texture—notice how the trees and grass look almost carved into the paper. The whole scene feels rough and raw, like a sketch that wasn’t smoothed out. If you like this style, look up Max Kaus for more of his work.
