Untitled is a 1902 ink by Walter Sickert, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a quiet waterfront scene with three small boats tied to wooden posts. Behind them, a row of buildings has empty windows and a simple staircase. The water is calm, with just a few wavy lines, and the whole scene feels a bit sketchy, like it was drawn quickly. The artist used a loose, almost hurried style, leaving some lines rough and unfinished. The boats look ready for use, but the area feels empty—no people are around. If you like this style, look up etching to see how artists create prints like this.
