Porte d'Orleans

Paul Gangolf

National Gallery of Art

The image shows intersecting lines and shapes forming an abstract scene. Circular and linear patterns create a sense of chaos. The composition suggests a street scene with figures, a trolley, and vehicles. Some recognizable objects are a sign with "Porte d'Orleans." The dense lines give the impression of a bustling city intersection.
