Black on Maroon — Fine Art

Black on Maroon - 1959 shows two deep colour fields stacked on the sheet. A dark band runs near the top, and a warmer maroon band sits below it. The edges between them are soft, so the shapes seem to breathe into each other.

This is a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. The paper has a matte finish, so the dark tones stay even and there is no shine under a lamp.

It fits a quiet corner in a study above a desk. From the chair you see the broad dark band first, and only when you lean in do the softer edges come into view. The maroon ground stays calm under the desk lamp.
