Dream Images

This particular painting is from 1976 and it is one of Romare Bearden's "Dream Images". Bearden made this painting a little more provocative than the rest. When I first look at this painting I see a tired female laid out contemplating life, she looks distressed. The room seemed to be pieced together in a collage like manner but it all fits into each other. The one thing that stands out the most to me is the blue upper left corner, the coloring is solid and put together unlike everything else in the room. The painting that is hung up on the wall seems a little bit oddly placed because the room appears to be a kitchen.
