"Cattails with Red Sun" is a 1969 work by American sculptor Alexander Calder (1898-1976). The abstract piece features bold black lines, resembling cattails, arranged in a vertical composition against a light background. A large, bright red circle, evoking a setting sun, dominates the center. Calder's signature, "Calder 69," is present in the bottom right corner. The artwork exemplifies Calder's artistic exploration of line, shape, and color, creating a dynamic composition that reflects his mastery of abstract expressionism.
