Anemone is a 1850 by Hrandt Avakian, depicting blue, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This piece is mostly blank—just a light tan paper with a few faint marks. In the top left corner, there’s a quick sketch of two blue lines, almost like a rough diagram or a quick thought. The rest of the paper has some red handwriting, including the word "Anemone" and the year "1966" written in a loose, uneven style. The handwriting and the single sketch make it feel like a quick note or a test run for something bigger. The paper looks worn, with small tears and stains along the edges. If you’re curious about this kind of minimal, sketchy work, look up Avakian, Hrandt.
