From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1921 ink by Werner Graeff, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows simple black lines and shapes on light paper. The lines form angles, rectangles, and a few small squares. Some shapes overlap, while others stand alone. There’s a mix of thick and thin lines, and a few have tiny parallel marks inside them. The artist used just ink and paper, keeping everything clean and flat. No colors or textures distract—just shapes and space. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next.
