Relational Painting, Tondo 

Fritz Glarner’s “Relational Painting, Tondo” is a prime example of abstract art, specifically, geometric abstract art. The painting depicts a series of simple geometric shapes: squares, rectangles, and lines in a color scheme of red, yellow, blue, black, white, and gray. The painting is a tondo, a circular composition that is framed by a thick white ring. The shape and composition of the work, along with the colors, are all carefully balanced, resulting in a sense of harmony and order.
