Plain of Air 1940 by Rene Magritte — Fine Art

Plain of Air 1940 opens with a plain painted ground that holds a few soft forms. The shapes sit low and the sky stays clear above them. Rene Magritte keeps the picture calm and spaced out. From across the room the forms read as simple blocks, while up close the edges look hand painted.

This fine art print sits in a frame with a back panel. The paper is matte, so the muted tones stay soft and there is no shine under a lamp. You get a ready to hang object when the assembled option is chosen.

It works on a hallway wall near the stairs. From the landing you see the broad shapes clearly, and from the kitchen doorway the pale ground reads as a flat field of air.
