Untitled is a 1912 watercolor by Wyndham Lewis, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows two people riding a bicycle on a city street. The figures are drawn in sharp, angular lines, almost like stiff cutouts. The background is simple—a streetlamp and a sidewalk—but the bike’s wheels and the riders’ clothes look twisted and uneven. The artist used quick, sketchy strokes, almost like a hurried doodle. The paper has a rough, textured look, and the ink bleeds slightly in places. Try looking up *watercolor, glazing* next to see how artists build up layers like this.
Percy Wyndham Lewis (18 November 1882 – 7 March 1957) was a Canadian-born British writer, painter and critic.
