About the Item
A painting showing three women around a coffee table. The painting is done primarily in neutral tones, cream, ocher, and dusty brick reds, with heavy black lines. Right in the center of the composition, on the table, is a pure white vase with three roses, two white coffee mugs beside them, glowing against all the warmer tones in the painting. From the expressions on the faces of the women, the central lady is telling the other women good news. The patterns in the painting are very interesting, lots of stripes, checkers, and polka dots. This painting brings to mind the work of Henri Matisse in Carmody's use of pattern, simplified features in the figures, color choice and use of heavy black outlines. It also draws inspiration from the work of Jean Édouard Vuillard's. The composition even mirroring that in "Two Women Drinking Coffee", the bright window on behind the women in Carmody's painting in place of the outlined door in Vuillard's, and the pose of the woman in red similar to that of the woman in red in Vuillard's "The Conversation".
Framed in a wide white frame with gold leaf inner trim.
Framed dimensions: 24 x 30.25 inches
Painting dimensions: 18 x 24 inches
