Untitled is a 1920 ink by Peggy Bacon, held at Museum of Modern Art.
The painting depicts a group of people in a room, with a man in the center holding a large bag and another man to his right leaning on a chair. The room is cluttered with various objects, including a suitcase, a hat, and a piece of paper on the floor. The scene appears to be chaotic, with the individuals in the room seemingly in a state of disarray. The artist's use of drypoint creates a sense of texture and depth, adding to the overall sense of energy and movement in the piece.
