The artwork, titled “Interior with Book,” is a painting by Richard Diebenkorn created in 1959. The medium employed is oil on canvas, and it measures 177.8 by 162.6 centimeters. It belongs to the Expressionism art movement and depicts an interior scene.
The painting showcases a serene interior space characterized by bold and expressive brushstrokes. Dominated by cool shades of blue, the scene is punctuated by the bright yellow and green hues of the landscape visible through large windows, creating a striking contrast. The composition features a chair positioned beside a table, on which an open book and a few other indistinguishable objects are placed. The fluidity of the brushwork and the interplay of colors convey an intimate yet dynamic atmosphere, typical of the Expressionist genre.
