In the background, a shelf displays modest objects alongside a doorway to the right, suggesting passage to further rooms.

The scene is rendered in expressive, layered brushwork that alternates between linear marks and patches of colour, lending an abstract quality to the composition. Greens and blacks dominate, creating a restful, contemplative atmosphere, punctuated by colourful highlights of white, yellow and pink.

A skilful study of an everyday interior, capturing quiet domestic space through assured mark-making within a compact format.

Mounted on canvas, presented unframed with the canvas visible to the side. See less
