The artwork, titled “Vessel,” was created by Patrick Caulfield in 1987 and belongs to the art movements of Cubism and Pop Art. It falls under the genre of still life.
In the artwork, Caulfield employs a minimalist approach, depicting a vessel using bold, black silhouette shapes against a rich blue background. The composition is strikingly stark, with sharp lines and a contrast that reflects the artist’s Pop Art inclinations, while the simplified and fragmented form aligns with Cubist tendencies. The piece is emblematic of Caulfield’s style, merging elements of abstraction and figurative representation to create a visually compelling still life.
