Painting

A colourful cubist artwork of the same woman seen from multiple perspectives, painted in shades of white, yellow, orange and blue. The painting is framed by the blurred bodies of two men who are looking at the artwork: the photo is taken over their shoulders. The painting is part of the exhibition 'Cézanne to Giacometti:' at the National Gallery of Australia.
