Untitled is a 1969 graphite by Richard Long, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This photo shows a flat, empty desert with three small, rounded hills in the distance. The ground looks dry and covered in tiny rocks. The sky is pale and featureless, blending into the horizon. The artist made this by pasting together different pieces of paper and adding pencil marks. It’s not a real landscape but a constructed one. Check out Richard Long to see how he turns real walks into art.
