Lucidus Ordo — Fine Art

Lucidus Ordo by Hans Hofmann sets clear colour planes against each other. A wide band of blue sits near a warm orange field. The paint stays flat and the edges stay sharp.

You can see the push and pull that runs through much of Hans Hofmann work. This is a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. The paper is matte, so the blue and orange keep their own tone without a shine.

The frame sits flush on the back panel and the whole piece arrives ready to hang. It fits a hallway wall where the morning light comes in sideways. From the staircase you notice the orange first, then the blue edge as you pass.
