"Shrine (for R.K.) II" is a 1963 work by Miriam Schapiro, a prominent figure in the feminist art movement. The painting features a series of nested squares within a black frame, culminating in an arched top. Each square contains a distinct image, progressing from a pear and two objects to an egg and then an empty space. The simplified forms and muted palette create a sense of quietude and introspection. Schapiro's use of geometric shapes and flat color evokes the minimalist aesthetic of the era.
