Untitled is a 1947 ink by Roy DeCarava, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a side view of a person’s face and shoulders. The background is a flat, dark green. The face is mostly pink with a dark blue shadow over the hair and cheek. A red collar peeks out from under a dark jacket. The artist used bold colors and simple shapes to focus on light and shadow. The face looks calm but a little mysterious.
