James Rosenquist

Horse Blinders (west)
1972

A colorful abstract artwork featuring a juxtaposition of different elements: on the left, a vibrant yellow shape overlaps a circular form with a reflective surface, below which are curved lines in shades of pink and black; in the center, a photorealistic depiction of rippling blue water; and on the right, three vertical gray panels separated by thin horizontal lines. The bottom of the image includes handwritten text and signatures.
