The Window, Chiswick (1929). Mary Potter (British, 1900‑1981). Oil paint on canvas. Tate.

Potter was an early member of the Seven and Five Society, a group whose work is characterised by clear colours, an interest in light, and a certain freshness and simplicity. This is a typical example in which a table-top still life is set against a curtained window looking out onto a view of the river Thames, near Chiswick. The view is from her own sitting-room.
