Two Seated Figures 1955

"Two Seated Figures" is an abstract painting created by Robert Goodnough in 1955. This abstract work features a network of interlacing black lines that form a grid over the composition. The grid contains abstract shapes filled with a variety of colors, primarily shades of red, blue, and white, creating a vibrant and dynamic composition. The painting's title suggests a figural representation but the figures are abstract and undefined. This painting exemplifies Goodnough’s distinctive abstract style that gained recognition in the mid-20th century.
