Wall with Green Door

Georgia O'Keeffe · 1953 · oil on canvas ·  Accession ID  2015.19.155

Cylindrical, C-shaped, and triangular forms are painted with flat areas of vivid pink, purple, navy, royal, and light blue, turquoise, white, black, and gray in this abstract, horizontal painting. A rectangular form, jutting into the picture from the lower left corner, suggests a table, on which the shapes are stacked. The table has square, gray legs and a black top surface. The inner surface of the one leg we can see is carnation pink. The objects on top are painted with precise, well-defined edges. Each form is made of two colors: one for a top surface, and another for the side surfaces. For instance, one cylinder, near the lower left corner of the composition, is sky blue up the side, and white on the top surface. Another cylinder nearby also has a white top, but the side is violet. A Pacman-shaped object near the back, right corner of the table is pale, shell pink on the top surface and flamingo pink on the sides. Where the objects are white, the weave of the canvas is visible. Where the objects are painted, the colors are applied thickly, with visible brushstrokes and texture. Some pencil lines are visible as well, demarcating the edges of some objects. The background behind the table has stripes angling slightly down to the right in bands of white, navy, denim blue, and turquoise. Vertical bands near the upper right corner read as an abstracted column, in shades of turquoise and light blue. A triangular form with one band of pale purple and another of light yellow stretches across the background behind the table.
