About this work

Overview

Untitled is a double-sided lithograph created by Donald Baechler in 1996, held at The Museum of Modern Art.

Subject & Meaning

The print features a simple black flower on a white background, depicted with thick, wobbly lines on one side and inverted on the other, inviting the viewer to flip it.

Technique & Style

The flower's childlike yet deliberate appearance is achieved through lithography, a printmaking method involving greasy crayons on stone, resulting in a straightforward, unpolished representation.
