Salman Toor's 2020 painting, *Takeout*, depicts a contemporary scene of two figures relaxing on a couch and enjoying a meal. The painting's style is reminiscent of Post-Impressionism with its bold brushstrokes and emphasis on color and light. The inclusion of a television playing a scene from a historical painting adds a layer of commentary on contemporary life and its relationship to the past. Toor's work is known for its exploration of themes of identity, sexuality, and the immigrant experience.
