The artwork, titled “Untitled (Peonias series),” is a painting by Cy Twombly, created in 2007. This piece is part of the Peony Blossom Paintings series from the same year and belongs to the Abstract Expressionism art movement, specifically within the abstract genre.
In this composition, vibrant red forms resembling peonies dominate the canvas, set against a soft yellow background. The red shapes appear to be spontaneous and loosely structured, with paint dripping down the canvas, creating an impression of fluidity and movement. The juxtaposition of the bold red and serene yellow demonstrates Twombly’s characteristic style, emphasizing expressive brushwork and a profound sense of spontaneity. The overall effect is a dynamic, visually stimulating piece that evokes both the vitality and fragility of blooming flowers.
