a painting by Wayne Thiebaud, depicting a display of various cakes arranged neatly on individual white cake stands. The cakes are rendered with thick, creamy layers of paint, emphasizing their rich textures and colors. Each cake is distinct, with different designs and decorations, such as a heart, spirals, cherries, and floral motifs. The composition is orderly, with the cakes placed in a grid-like formation, creating a sense of both abundance and simplicity. The background is a pale, almost white surface, which contrasts with the vividness of the cakes, drawing attention to their details. The overall effect is both whimsical and slightly nostalgic, evoking the feel of a classic bakery display.
