  • Elegy to the Spanish Republic XXXIV, 1953-1954

    Robert Motherwell

    Elegy to the Spanish Republic XXXIV
  • Santa Cruz Circle, 1997

    Richard Long

    A number of rectangular bricks of natural slate of varying dimensions are packed together to form a nearly perfect circle. In this image, you are looking down at the work as installed on a light colored parquet floor from a shallow angle.
  • Danseuse au café (Dancer in a Café), 1912

    Jean Metzinger

    Danseuse au café (Dancer in a Café)
  • La Source de la Loue (The Source of the Loue), ca. 1864

    Gustave Courbet

    The dark mouth of a cave fills the center of this image. It is framed in the upper portion of the canvas by an arch of highly textured rocks in shades of light brown flecked with touches of cool red, pink, and blue. Dark water that becomes white foam as it flows over boulders at the bottom edge of the painting flows forth from the cave entrance.
  • Le Panthéon et Saint-Étienne-du-Mont (The Pantheon and Saint-Étienne-du-Mont), ca. 1903-1906

    Raoul Dufy

    A large building topped by a dome held aloft by classical pillars dominates this brightly lit city scene. The building extends from the right edge of the canvas. On the left, a clear blue skills fills the area above a church with a large bell tower and a section of yellow cobblestones partially filled by a number of pedestrians.
  • Mirrored Room, 1966

    Lucas Samaras

    Mirrored Room
  • Corazón de roca con sangre (Heart of Rock with Blood), 1975

    Ana Mendieta

    First of two images. Still from a video of the artist naked on the banks of a river, which is just visible in the upper-right corner of the image. She kneels on the leaf-covered ground, staring at the silhouette of a female figure dug into the earth in shallow relief.
  • Bucolic Landscape, 1945

    Milton Avery

    A bright yellow cow, seen from the rear, sits in a grassy field on the left side of this horizontally oriented canvas. On the right, a reddish path leads into a dense woodland, and above the cow on the left, a narrow rectangle of pink sky emerges behind rolling green hills. Short red flowers are visible in the foreground, and a single, scraggly tree juts out of the ground in the upper-left corner. The colors are soft and bright, suggesting a warm, sunny day.
