Untitled is a 1922 ink by Wassily Kandinsky, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This drawing is all jagged lines and rough shapes. There’s no clear picture—just sharp angles, dots, and scribbles scattered across the page. Some parts look like buildings or faces, but they’re twisted and hard to make out. The artist used a technique called drypoint, where lines are scratched into a metal plate. It leaves a textured, almost scratchy look. Check out lithography next to see how it compares to this scratchy style.
Wassily Wassilyevich Kandinsky (16 December 1866 – 13 December 1944) was a Russian painter and art theorist active in Germany during the late Belle Époque and Interwar eras.
