Artist, American, born 1908

The image depicts bold, angular shapes and lines creating a central rectangular structure, with purple and brown tones framing the composition. The arrangement of lines and colors resembles a window with curtains, where the flowing strokes on the sides resemble draped fabric. The intersecting lines and contrasting colors form a visual structure reminiscent of windowpanes and curtain rods, creating a sense of viewing through an abstract lens.
