description

Mediums: oil, canvas.
Location: The London Tate Modern Gallery (the UK).

Briefly about the painting:

The canvas that refers to the late period of the artist’s creative career is painted in the manner of almost abstract expressionism. By name, it is possible to determine that women, indicated in the plot by several agitated lines, work near the tables and cooking surfaces of a large restaurant. The stress of the process of their labor is emotionally conveyed, which is emphasized by the hot palette of individual color spots and the very manner of applying brushstrokes to the canvas. The artist uses several angles for a dynamic image, for example, the tables have the image of “top view, and the conditional figures of people are frontal.
