Zwei Frauen beim Kaffee

Édouard Vuillard, um 1893

This painting displays soft, rounded shapes and fragmented lines, creating an abstract portrayal of two people seated at a dark yellow table. The round table is in the center, while the two people are on the left, their faces and bodies suggested with small dots of tan and light brown paint. The rough, brown surface under the paint has been allowed to show through in many places. On the table, white circular shapes resemble a cup and saucer, as well as a plate and bowl. The right side of the table has a light brown cloth draped over it, decorated with bright splashes. Behind the table and the people is a greenish-blue wall with a white door in the upper right corner.
