DETAILS
Each vintage panel is painted with a Cubist nude classical figure posed against a soft blue backdrop. Each lower section has a different geometric shape flanked by pillars. The canvases are mounted into a wooden white washed oak frame. It would make an impressive statement in any room as an art piece or room divider.
