Split Level, 1958. Michael Goldberg (American, 1924–2007). Oil on canvas; unframed: 203.2 x 177.7 cm (80 x 69 15/16 in.). The Cleveland Museum of Art, Gift of B. C. Holland 1965.80 Split Level belongs to the House series of paintings Goldberg created during 1957–60, in which densely robust brushwork coalesces into and around a dark rectangular form. Despite its architectural inspiration, the painting is fundamentally a record of the artist’s instinctive feelings rather than a specific image.
