1887
ink
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1887 ink by Walter Sickert, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a busy street scene with quick, rough lines. People walk in different directions, some carrying bags. Buildings line the street, and a horse-drawn carriage is in the background. The drawing looks unfinished, with lots of shading and smudges. The artist used a technique that leaves dark lines and textures—this is likely because it’s an etching. The loose style makes the scene feel fast and alive, almost like a snapshot. Check out how the artist used etching to create this effect.
Walter Richard Sickert (31 May 1860 – 22 January 1942) was a German-born British painter and printmaker who was a member of the Camden Town Group of Post-Impressionist artists in early 20th-century London.
