Untitled is a 1991 ink by Rubén Ortiz-Torres, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This print shows a red crown of thorns floating above a blurry black-and-white photo. The photo looks like people standing near a wall and a drop-off, maybe a cliff. The red thorns are sharp and stand out against the faded background. The crown of thorns is a symbol often linked to religious stories. The mix of sharp red and faded grayscale creates a strong contrast. If you like this, check out more about lithography.
