0 Through 9 — Fine Art

0 Through 9 shows the numbers zero to nine made from cut paper and paint on a pale ground. Jasper Johns built the numerals from small torn pieces and layered paint over them. The marks read as stencils and collaged paper held together with wet paint.

This fine art print uses a matte paper surface so the painted edges stay soft and do not glare under a lamp. The paper is sealed with a light matte finish that keeps the grey paint tones even.

It fits a quiet study where you read at a desk facing the wall. From the chair you see the numbers standing in a row, and the small paper cut marks show when you lean in. The grey paint stays flat under the ceiling light, and the pale background holds the row without crowding it.
