Cloth and Chair by Richard Walker (b. 1955) captures a flattened perspective of items such as boxes, a white tarped item, a black chair and bin, against a grey wall. Walker uses his characteristic wide, rectangular strokes to make up the solid colour of the background and floor, with the floor being a darker colour to create some level of depth to the room. The folds of the white cloth or tarp show these rectangular brush strokes in a more expressive manner, loosely capturing the shadows while still maintaining the mostly flattened perspective. 

Walker was well known for observational and interior paintings, often depicting even artist studios, which is possibly what is depicted here. This work contains elements of observational realism, where Walker has depicted the room and items exactly as they appear from his viewpoint, rather than creating an impression of the items.
