Untitled is a 1949 ink by William Ross Abrams, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a flat, bold scene with bright green objects on a dark red, swirling background. There’s a teapot, a cup, a spoon, and a vase, all outlined in black. The shapes are simple but slightly off-kilter, like they’re floating. The artist used a printing method where the design is carved into wood, then inked. That’s why the lines are sharp and the colors pop. Next, check out woodcut to see how this technique works.
William Ross Abrams (1920–2007) was an American artist.
