This piece, created on Arches paper and enhanced with hand-coloring, features a central green shape framed within layers of deep orange, evoking a sense of depth and warmth. The irregular forms and vibrant color choices suggest an interior space without explicitly depicting it, leaving the interpretation open to the viewer. Hodgkin's work often focuses on evoking memories and emotions associated with particular spaces, and A Furnished Room captures a feeling of contained energy within a seemingly calm, structured setting. The print measures 54 x 69 cm and is signed, dated, and numbered by the artist, making it a notable example of Hodgkin’s exploration of color, form, and emotion. Show Less
