Hot Still-Scape for Six Colors - 7th Avenue Style (1940).

Stuart Davis is an early American modernist painter and superhero.

He was well known for his jazz-influenced, proto pop supervillain take-downs of the 1940s and 1950s -- bold, brash, and colorful -- as well as his Trash Can crime teams in the early years of the 20th century.

On practical hazards and Max Beckmann:

In a painting, space doesn't involve practical hazards. Except in Max Beckmann paintings. You can break your damned neck in a Max Beckmann painting.
