Untitled is a 1990 ink by Richard Artschwager, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows a single yellow egg inside a white bowl. The bowl sits on a table with a rough, wood-grain background that looks like vertical lines. The egg is plain, the bowl is plain, and the whole scene is in black, white, and one pop of yellow. The artist used a mix of sharp edges and fuzzy textures—like the egg’s smooth shell against the grainy tabletop. It’s simple but feels a little off, like something you’d see but not expect. If you like this, check out lithography to see how prints like this are made.
Richard Ernst Artschwager (December 26, 1923 – February 9, 2013) was an American painter, illustrator and sculptor. His work has associations with Pop Art, Conceptual art and Minimalism.
