Playing Card and Glass — Fine Art

A painted card shape and a glass vessel sit close together on an unclear surface. Playing Card and Glass - 1914 by Pablo Picasso uses flat colour planes and sharp angles to build the two objects. The forms read clearly from a distance, while the small painted edges appear when you stand nearer.

This fine art print sits in a frame with a back panel. The matte paper holds the flat colour without a shine, so the painted planes stay as they are in the picture.

Hang it in a dining room beside a plain wall. From the table you notice the two objects and the hard lines that separate them.
