Autumnal Brown Gesture 1969

"Autumnal Brown Gesture" is a 1969 abstract painting by Stanley Boxer (1926-2000). The piece is dominated by a lavender background, which serves as a canvas for several geometric shapes in shades of brown, green, and blue. These shapes appear to be layered upon the background, creating a sense of depth and texture. This work is a prime example of Boxer's abstract style and is characteristic of his use of color and shape.
