The artwork, titled “The Fragile,” was created by Louise Bourgeois in 2007 in the United States. It is part of the Conceptual Art movement and is classified as a symbolic painting.
“The Fragile” features an abstract form that appears to resemble a delicate, almost insect-like figure rendered in shades of deep blue. The shapes are fluid, with broad, sweeping strokes that give it an ethereal quality. The artwork’s minimalist use of color and form evokes a sense of vulnerability and delicate balance, fitting with its title. The background is a stark, untouched canvas, which contrasts with the bold, central figure, emphasizing its fragility and prominence.
