Interior is a 1915 unspecified by Gwen John, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
You see a small wooden table, two white cups, a teapot, and a chair pushed against the wall. Gwen John painted this same corner four times. Each version is almost the same—quiet, soft colors, no people. She once wrote, “I may never have anything to express, except this desire for a more interior life.” This painting feels like that.
