This painting shows bold, blocky shapes in bright colors—reds, blues, and yellows. There’s a mix of curves and sharp angles, like a musical instrument with a body that’s half red, half blue. A white flag or cloth hangs in the middle, and the whole scene feels busy but balanced. The artist used woodcut lines for the strong outlines, then added watercolor for the flat colors. That combo makes the shapes pop. Next, check out woodcut to see how artists carve and print images like this.
