Ancient Image — Fine Art

Ancient Image - 1984 shows thick bands of bright colour laid over a dark field. The paint sits in bold blocks that push against the background. Nicholas Krushenick built his pictures from hard-edged colour planes, and this fine art print follows that same flat method.

The white frame gives the picture a clear edge on the wall. The clean border keeps the dark ground from bleeding into the room. You see the bright shapes first, then the thin frame line holding them in place.

It sits well on a dining room wall above a sideboard. From the table you get the full width of the colour blocks. Near the doorway the white frame reads as a simple border. Late in the day the flat paint stays even under the lamp.
