Romare Bearden, Rain Forest––Pool, c. 1978
oil monotype with paint on paper
Private collection, Cambridge, Massachusetts

Drawn in essentially one color and composed of a rectangular grid of forms, the lush character of a tropical landscape nevertheless is conveyed in this monotype. It is among Bearden's more minimalist works.
