Scatola rossa con astuccio per occhiali 1923

"Scatola rossa con astuccio per occhiali" (Red Box with Eyeglass Case), painted in 1923 by German artist Julius Bissier (1893-1965), is a still life that showcases Bissier's early exploration of geometric shapes and simple forms. The composition features a bright red box, partially open, alongside a black eyeglass case, all set against a dark background. This painting exemplifies Bissier's interest in the interplay of light and shadow, evident in the way he rendered the box's vibrant red hue and the subtle gradations of the background.
