Nassau #5 1967

Ralston Crawford's "Nassau #5" (1967) is a striking example of his abstract style. This painting features a large, simplified anchor, along with geometric shapes and lines, reminiscent of his earlier Precisionist works. The bold color choices, including turquoise, brown, and white, create a sense of dynamism and energy. Crawford's focus on abstraction, combined with his use of bold color and geometric forms, reflects his interest in depicting the essence of modern life. The artwork's title suggests a connection to the Caribbean, further emphasizing the interplay of nature and urban design often found in Crawford's work.
