Abstract, Cubist painting of objects on a table, highly geometric and boldy rendered in angular shapes of yellow, green blue, and brown. Errant details and textures emerge, often indecipherable as specific objects, but a small book of matches at center is clearly rendered, down to the writing on its cover.
