1892
watercolor
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1892 watercolor by Émile Bernard, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This woodcut shows a woman in a flowing dress sitting on a rocky shore. She holds a sleeping child in her lap while a dog rests nearby. The background has tall trees and a pale sky, with soft watercolor washes of blue and pink. The artist used sharp lines for the trees and rocks, but added gentle colors by hand. This mix of bold outlines and soft hues makes the scene feel both detailed and dreamy. Check out the technique: watercolor to see how artists use it with other methods.
