This is in part a study in complementary colours, Blue and Orange and also Red and
Green, most clearly, but also in a much more subdued way, Yellow and Purple. It also sets a
primary group of chair struts which are positioned from upper left to lower right in contrast to a
secondary set of struts orientated from upper right to lower left. A further compositional device is
the orange chair fabric stripe, which wanders from the top left corner to the bottom right corner.
