I don't know, the red in the Spanish Dancer painting just seems out of place to me, especially since the color is only somewhat repeated in the apple on the chair. Maybe it is meant to symbolize something or it's just there because he felt like it?!

On the other hand the painting of the Sitwel family, the red even though dominant, does get repeated several times throughout the painting, making it feel less out of sorts. The same holds true for the interior scene, where hints of the color can be found on the opposite wall.

Thank you everyone for your opinion!
