1914
gouache
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1914 gouache by Otto Mueller, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows two people standing in a wooded area. Their bodies are simple shapes—no extra details, just smooth lines and soft shading. One faces forward, arms at their sides, while the other bends slightly, looking away. Tall trees with thick trunks fill the background, and the ground looks like grass or leaves. The artist used a mix of pencil-like lines and some flat colors to keep it loose and sketchy. It feels more like a quick drawing than a polished painting. Check out how this was made using lithography.
Otto Mueller (16 October 1874 – 24 September 1930) was a German painter and printmaker of the Die Brücke expressionist movement.
