Untitled is a 1873 charcoal by Odilon Redon, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a man carrying a large head on a tray. The man is naked, and the head is turned away from him. The background is dark and smoky. The man's body is muscular, and his face is blurred. The head on the tray is also blurred, making it hard to tell who it is or what's happening. The overall mood is mysterious and a bit unsettling. If you want to learn more about the artist behind this work, look up Odilon Redon.
Born Bertrand-Jean Redon on 20 April 1840 in Bordeaux, the artist adopted the name Odilon from his mother, Marie-Odile.
