Still Life with Grapefruit and Seltzer Bottle
1954

An abstract painting featuring a blend of various shapes, lines, and colors including red, yellow, black, and blue on a predominantly beige canvas. The composition is seemingly chaotic with elements that could suggest fragmented objects or figures, but no clear forms are discernible.
