Drinking Fountain

Edward DiGennero

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two abstract shapes composed of elongated rectangular forms with shorter, more vertical structures attached at one end. These vertical elements have rounded edges and embossed teardrop-like decorations on their surfaces. The composition could resemble a stylized bench or platform, with a hint of architectural design resembling miniature models of staircases or a small stage setup. The uniformity and simplicity of the shapes contribute to the abstract nature of the artwork.
