"A Failing?" is a 2010 painting by Belgian artist Raoul De Keyser (1930-2012). The work features a simple, abstract composition with a large field of yellow, a sliver of green, and a thin line of white, framed by two brown strips. De Keyser was known for his pared-down, minimalist style, often focusing on basic geometric forms and limited color palettes. The use of simple shapes and bold colors in this painting exemplifies his approach, inviting viewers to contemplate the essence of form and color.
