Scrolls I

Cecil Stephenson 18 Sep 1889 - 1965

Summary

Abstract composition in green, grey and yellow depicting interlocking cylinders and scrolls within an irregular rectangular border, with both smooth and textural sponged-on paintwork. The shapes cast shadows onto a flat plane which receeds into the upper distance. There is no discernable perspective or single viewpoint for the viewer to rely on, as such a surreal image is created.
