Retablo
1935-1942
E. Boyd's 'Retablo' bursts with rhythmic vertical stripes, alternating between warm ochre, cool slate blue, and crisp white. Each panel is densely packed with swirling, baroque-inspired floral motifs that look like they belong on a luxurious piece of vintage wallpaper or a grand textile. Signed in the corner, this mid-20th-century design study captures the playful yet structured elegance of decorative arts from the 1930s and 40s, offering a fantastic glimpse into the meticulous planning behind beautiful, patterned surfaces.
