A vertical drawing on cream paper depicts a fragmented still life using black silhouettes and geometric forms. A pitcher silhouette sits atop a white rectangular block against a scarlet background. An oval below swirls with white, beige, pink, and gray gouache. Graphite lines and overlapping semicircles bisect the composition diagonally. The arrangement is sparse and skewed, combining solid colors and silhouetted shapes to create a highly abstract and structured tabletop scene.
