About this work

This painting shows a rumpled pinkish sheet and a white cloth crumpled together on a wooden floor. The wood has a warm, light brown color with visible grain lines. The cloth looks soft and slightly wrinkled, with some shadows where it folds. The artist used simple shapes and muted tones to make the fabrics look real. The paint is smooth but captures the way light hits the wrinkles. Look up Sylvia Plimack Mangold to see more of her quiet, everyday scenes.
