Composition
1955

A painting featuring an abstract composition with a mosaic of variously sized and colored blocks. The colors include shades of blue, brown, white, yellow, and red, with bold black outlines separating the shapes. Some blocks suggest figures and objects, while others are purely geometric. The style is reminiscent of cubism, and the painting is signed with the initials "B.P." and dated '55 in the bottom right corner.
