Artist, American, 1922 - 1993

The image shows a mix of angular and rounded shapes intersecting in different directions. Blocks of vibrant colors like purple, blue, and green merge with more subdued tones of gray and beige. The composition could be interpreted as buildings with slanted rooftops under a colorful sky. The use of color and shape suggests a village scene in an abstract form.
