Variant Adobe 1947 1 — Fine Art

Variant Adobe 1947 1 shows a square set of flat colour bands arranged by Josef Albers. The hues move from one ring to the next, each tone chosen to sit beside the one next to it.

You get the fine art print with a hanger already on the back. This belongs with the colour studies the artist made across his career. The white frame gives the picture a clean line on the wall. The white edge keeps the colour bands clear and stops them from fading into the plaster.

The surface is matte, so the tones read evenly in a room with lamps. It works on a bedroom wall above the bed. From the doorway you see the coloured rings and the quiet white border.
