Series Painting 10 — Fine Art

Series Painting 10 - 1966 by Ronnie Landfield sits on the wall as a broad field of paint with bands crossing the sheet. The tones build from a quiet centre outward, so the edges hold a little more weight. The surface carries the slow work of an abstract painter working in a post war abstract painting tradition.

The print is a fine art piece on a matte sheet that does not throw light back under a lamp. A light frame sits on a darker wall, or a wood frame beside timber furniture. The flat colour bands read cleanly at that height without glare.

In a study wall picture space, the bands settle above the desk and the quiet ground keeps the room calm. From the reading chair you notice the layered hue surface and the steady rhythm of the marks.
