Beauford Delaney

Untitled
1948

A vibrant expressionist painting depicting an interior scene with thick, textured brushstrokes. The room features a salmon-pink wall with a green corner, a small round table with a yellow lamp, and a framed landscape painting on the wall. A black wood-burning stove with purple accents sits to the right, and a striped object is partially visible on the right edge. The floor is painted in shades of green and pink, with a purple and white patterned rug. The artist's signature and the year '48 are visible in the lower right corner.
