Untitled is a 1915 watercolor by Piet Mondrian, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a round shape filled with straight black lines and blocks of white and light brown. The lines crisscross in a grid, but the blocks are uneven, breaking up the pattern. Some areas look like they’ve been scraped or erased, leaving rough edges. The artist used simple colors—just black, white, and a soft tan—without any curves or shading. The lines feel precise but the shapes are messy, like a puzzle that’s not quite finished. If you like this style, check out Piet Mondrian.
Pieter Cornelis Mondriaan (Dutch: ; 7 March 1872 – 1 February 1944), known after 1911 as Piet Mondrian (, US also ; Dutch: ), was a Dutch painter and art theoretician, who is regarded as one of the greatest artists of the 20th century.
