Construction with four elements (2)

This is a series of simplified sketches I prepared on the basis of drawings lodged with the Ulster Museum in Belfast. There is a Jellett painting based on these sketches but what is particularly interesting is that the same construction is used for a major painting - The Black Centre, 1925 - by Gleizes, illustrating how closely the two painters were working together.
