Philip Guston
In Bed, 1970
#Painting #Art #OilPainting
A square format painting, black background. Two figures separated beneath a wrinkled, crimson bedsheet, faces peeking out. On the left a lined forehead, straggly grey hair, a large eyelid with prominent lashes. On the right a straggly heap of straw-yellow hair around a pink eyelid, large lashes resting over the blanket's edge.
