About this piece
Henry Lyman Sayen’s Child Reading (1970) distills a moment of quiet focus into expressive abstraction. A seated figure emerges through bold, curving brushstrokes in vibrant blues, oranges, and greens, cradling a book-like form amid dynamic color fields. The composition evokes mid-century introspection with a modern edge.
