Summerstorm 1959 — Fine Art

Summerstorm 1959 by Robert Rauschenberg reads as a soft field of grey and blue with a few dark lines near the top. From the doorway the broad washes hold the space. You step closer and see the small transfers and pencil traces laid over the painted surface. The work stays calm at both distances.

This is a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. The matte surface keeps the light tones from shining under direct light. The frame sits flat against the wall and the back panel holds the sheet straight.

Above a desk in a study, the grey field stays even when the lamp moves. The dark lines stay visible from the chair. On a narrow shelf in a reading corner, the pale blue tone stays quiet against books and wood.
