Geometric Art Deco elegance: a tall cocktail coupe of amber liquid rests on a polished black table, three slim books leaning behind it, their spines built from stepped rectangles and chevrons in emerald, jet and ivory edged in gold and silver leaf. A fan of radiating rays and arcs fills the background, the stem a clean vertical line, the composition balanced and symmetrical with gleaming metallic highlights against deep matte colour.
