The present work retains some of the browns and grays used by Picasso to depict the mood of the period but evinces a concentrated glimmer of hope with the inclusion of a vibrant blue coffeepot. Depicted atop a table alongside another ambiguous item—perhaps a lamp or vase— the painting is charged with geometric dynamism through the artist’s rendering of the objects from a variety of angles, in a style reminiscent of his earlier Cubist works. Indeed, not since his Cubist period had Picasso been so engaged with the still life format as he was during the war and postwar years.
