  • Portrait of Jacques-François Desmaisons, 1782

    Jacques-Louis David

    Portrait of Jacques-François Desmaisons
  • Chatham XI: Blue Yellow, 1971

    Ellsworth Kelly

    This artwork is made up of two separate, rectangular panels installed adjacent to one another at a right angle. The top panel is horizontally oriented and a solid dark blue color. Aligned underneath the left side of this panel is a second, smaller panel that is vertically oriented and a solid yellow color.
  • Orange Crush, 1963

    Larry Poons

    Light blue polka dots randomly pepper the solidly orange-colored surface of this large square canvas. Neat rows of six or seven dots line the painting’s edges. The contrast between the vibrant orange and pale blue creates an optical effect that makes it appear as if the blue dots are vibrating.
  • Hotel Lobby, 1950

    Max Beckmann

    More than a dozen figures crowd this canvas. Four appear to be seated around a table in the center and the rest appear to be standing elsewhere in the room. The figures’ features are abstracted, exaggerated, and outlined with thick black lines filled with a range of shades of muted russet, turquoise, pink, and green. The black frame of what appears to be a French door interrupts the right third of the composition.
  • Kilroy, 1957

    Paul Terence Feeley

    Kilroy
  • Vega-Nor, 1969

    Victor Vasarely

    A brightly colored grid stands out in sharp contrast against the dark blue and green background of this large-scale square painting. At the center of the work, the artist distorted the grid to create the optical illusion of a large spherical shape bulging out of this flat surface.
  • La Maison de La Crau (The Old Mill), 1888

    Vincent van Gogh

    Loose thick brushstrokes in a vibrant palette define a rural scene beneath a turquoise green sky. On the right is a tall sandy colored building with a yellow roof and brownish-red chimney. Steps leads from the structure toward the left-hand side of the image, where, two people stand in front of a purple fence. Beyond the fence and toward the upper left of the image are green fields dotted with small houses and blue mountains in the far distance.
  • New York Waterfront, 1938

    Stuart Davis

    Abstract shapes filled with solid areas of red, blue, white, and black paint float in a loosely linked cluster in the middle of this small beige canvas. Many of the shapes loosely resemble buildings, including a red structure with blue windows and tall black smokestacks at center, which sits beneath a white rectangle featuring the letters L and R in blue. A white shape with red edges at bottom resembles at boat while a patch of blue at bottom left may suggest water.
  • Flood, 2007

    Barnaby Furnas

    Long, thick, horizontal strokes of paint ranging in hue from black to bright magenta span the pale blue background of this abstract painting. In the upper right corner, the background emerges behind a light spray and thin drips of red paint. A faint white vertical line, like a narrow beam of light, stretches from the center of the canvas’s top toward the bottom but is quickly subsumed under the horizontal strokes.
