Glass and Carafe 1917 — Fine Art

Glass and Carafe 1917 shows a carafe and a drinking glass placed near each other on a plain field. The shapes are built from blocks of colour that lean into one another. You can trace the outline of the glass and the curve of the carafe body.

The fine art print comes ready to hang. The white frame gives the picture a clear edge on the wall. That border keeps the coloured planes from spreading past the image. You see the glass edges first, then the darker brown passages, then the open space around them.

It sits on a kitchen wall above the sink. From the table you notice the hard lines of the carafe against the pale field. The glass catches the morning light while the carafe stays solid.
