This drawing shows a room split into sharp, slanted blocks of color. Bright red walls lean at odd angles, while yellow and green rectangles slice through the space. A set of stairs twists up the middle, but the lines don’t quite match real life. The background is a soft blue, with a faint green hill peeking through. The artist played with perspective—walls and stairs don’t follow normal rules. This was made in 1912, when artists were experimenting with how things look. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
