Revitalize your décor with this thoroughly modern floor lamp. With a minimalist cylinder shade and shimmering frame, its marble base heightens the glamorous appeal of any room.

This vintage Swedish Rya wool rug features a series of five concentric rectanglues in varying shades of blue. The largest rectangle is the darkest blue tone which creates a frame-like appearance. This large rectangle contains within it four more smaller rectangles, each with a lighter shade of blue. The dynamic geometric design and tonal blue hues woven into this piece work together creating a true Scandinavian Modern look. This was possibly designed by Viola Grasten for NK Textilkammare.

This design is a reproduction of an original work of art in The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection.

Robert is known to have made counterproofs of his drawings to reproduce a unique work of art in duplicate. In this instance, he took a red-chalk drawing and ran it through a press against a blank sheet of paper, resulting in the same image in reverse. Counterproofs were customarily reworked in other media, here in pen, black ink, and watercolor. This drawing was strengthened with red ochre wash to denote half tones, white wash to emphasize the brilliantly lit middle ground, and blue-green watercolor to accentuate the walls framing the doorway. The figures were then heavily reworked with pen and black ink.
