Untitled is a 1927 watercolor by Oscar Florianus Bluemner, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a bright red circle with swirling lines inside it. The background is dark blue, with some black shapes on the sides. The red circle looks fuzzy, like it’s glowing. The artist used watercolor, which lets colors blend softly. The red seems to pop against the dark background. Look up watercolor, glazing to see how artists build up color like this.
Oscar Bluemner (June 21, 1867 – January 12, 1938), born Friedrich Julius Oskar Blümner and after 1933 known as Oscar Florianus Bluemner, was a Prussian-born American Modernist painter.
