The artwork titled “Interior with View of Buildings” is a 1962 oil painting on canvas by artist Richard Diebenkorn. The piece, created in the Expressionism art movement, measures 213.4 x 170.2 cm and falls within the interior genre.
The artwork masterfully combines an indoor scene with an external view of buildings. In the foreground, one sees a partial interior setting, highlighted by dark, encompassing hues of deep blue and green. On the surface, a few items, including what appears to be an artistic frame and a magnifying glass, are placed, adding a sense of depth and complexity. The background transitions into a brighter, exterior view where rows of low-rise buildings are set against a vast, serene sky of soft blue. The composition and brushwork evoke an expressive, contemplative atmosphere, bridging the interior’s quiet darkness with the exterior’s light-filled clarity. The juxtaposition of these realms showcases Diebenkorn’s skill in capturing both the tangible and the ethereal within a single frame.
