This striking four-panel room divider is a vibrant fusion of functional furniture and bold, Cubist-inspired fine art. The central panels feature a stylized interpretation of Pablo Picasso’s 1932 masterpiece, Girl Before a Mirror, rendered in a rich palette of emerald green, ochre, deep crimson, and bold black linework.
The screen is constructed with unique, asymmetrical contoured tops—the outer panels flare outward like wings, while the inner panels rise into elegant arches, creating a dynamic silhouette even when partially folded. The artwork is finished with a high-gloss lacquer that enhances the saturation of the colors and provides a smooth, reflective surface.
The reverse side showcases the natural warmth of the wood grain, offering a minimalist alternative for more subdued spaces. Supported by sturdy metal hinges, this piece serves as both a private partition and a monumental statement piece for any Mid-Century Modern or eclectic interior.
