Untitled is a 1941 ink by Wim Beuning, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This lithograph presents a dreamlike scene, with a central figure suspended in mid-air. The figure is rendered in a flowing, abstract style, with lines and shapes that evoke a sense of movement and fluidity. The background of the image is a deep, rich black, which serves to heighten the contrast with the lighter tones of the figure. The overall effect is one of dynamic energy and tension, as if the figure is about to burst forth from the confines of the image.

Wim Beuning (1914–1986) was a Dutch artist, born in Amsterdam.
