Untitled is a 1961 ink by Richard Diebenkorn, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows two big, shadowy shapes tangled together. One looks like a person lying down, arms stretched out, while the other is a darker, rounded form above them. The background has rough, textured lines and a mix of black, gray, and white. The edges of the shapes are messy, like they were drawn quickly or erased. The artist used a technique where ink is pressed onto a smooth stone, then transferred to paper—this lets for bold, uneven marks. The title is just "Untitled," so there’s no story or name to guess at here. Check out lithography to see how this print was made.
Richard Diebenkorn (April 22, 1922 – March 30, 1993) was an American painter and printmaker.
