Untitled is a 1890 watercolor by Émile Bernard, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting features a list of 16 names, likely of artists, in French. The names are written in a decorative, brown font, with some words overlapping or cut off by the edges of the paper. The background of the painting is a light beige color, with some darker brown marks and smudges visible. To the right of the list, there is a small illustration of three geese, with a few plants and flowers surrounding them. The illustration is done in the same brown color as the text, and is also somewhat rough and sketchy in style. The painting's use of a list format and decorative typography gives it a sense of formality and elegance, while the illustration of the geese adds a touch of whimsy and playfulness.
