  • Saw and Sawed, 1969

    Neil Jenney

    A chainsaw with a long, gray rounded blade and yellow motor marked with the letter M just above its handle rests in a field of dark green brushstrokes evocative of thick grass between a section of newly cut tree trunk is lying on its side on the left and a short, brown tree stump on the right. A black border runs around the image, and the words SAW AND SAWED appear in white capital letters at bottom center.
  • Triptych with Footprints, 1970

    Antoni Tàpies

    Three vertical cream-colored panels are joined to form a long thin horizontal work. A series of footprints stretches across all three panels, slightly above their centers. On the left panel, gray cloudlike forms float at top and bottom, and a grouping of letters and lines stretch diagonally from the upper left-hand toward the center. A series of lines and waves fill the bottom half of the right panel.
  • Paysans dans les champs, Éragny (Peasants in the Fields, Éragny), 1890

    Camille Pissarro

    A landscape of recently cleared fields and grass covered hills beneath a sunny blue sky filled with white clouds fills this horizontally oriented painting. In the bottom left foreground, a woman holding a basket in her right hand watches as a man thrusts a shovel into the ground. A horse-drawn wagon approaches in the distance, and a child sits in the field toward the right edge of the painting. The entire scene is rendered in individual dots of paint in deep blue, violet, green, orange, and other shades.
