Untitled is a 1911 ink by Robert Riggs, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This black-and-white scene shows a dimly lit room where a group of shirtless men are gathered around a table. One man in a cap and uniform stands over a prone figure, while others lean in, focusing on something small on the table. The lighting is harsh, casting shadows and highlighting the tension in their postures. The image feels like a snapshot of a moment of intense focus, maybe even something secretive. The artist used a printing method that creates sharp lines and deep contrasts. Check out lithography to see how this kind of print was made.
