The artwork titled “In the Garden #116” was created by Jennifer Bartlett in the year 1983. It belongs to the figurative genre.
In the artwork, the observer is presented with a serene outdoor scene. On the left, there is a sculpted figure of a child, positioned upon what appears to be a low-surface near the edge of a tiled pool. The statue is depicted in shades of pale white and cream, standing out against a textured, mosaic-like backdrop of various greens and grays. To the right, the scene shifts to depict a reflective, gridded surface, likely part of the same space, cast with abstract shadows and the partial reflection of an object, possibly another piece of statuary. The overall composition is characterized by a tranquil ambiance, with a muted color palette and meticulous attention to the nuances of light and shadow.
