Number 453 — Fine Art

Number 453 - 1952 by Anne Ryan shows a painted surface with bold marks set across a plain ground. The brushwork of Anne Ryan reads with quick strokes and softer washes that overlap. You see a mix of strong lines and thin patches of paint laid down in layers.

This fine art print arrives ready to hang with a metal hanger fitted to the back. The hanger goes straight onto a nail or screw. The matte paper keeps the painted marks soft and removes shine under a lamp.

On a narrow hallway wall above a shoe rack the big strokes are easy to see from the doorway. From the kitchen window you notice the thin pencil-like lines mixed into the thicker paint.
