Ra 2 1981 — Fine Art

Ra 2 1981 follows the optical art movement with hard edges and steady shifts of tone across the sheet. The repeats pull the eye along the picture plane.

You get the fine art print with a hanger already on the back. Bridget Riley set out her work in bands and chevrons that change speed as you read them. The print sits on a light matte sheet so the grey shifts stay soft and the black lines do not shine under a lamp.

A dark frame on a pale wall lets the grey steps stand clear without crowding the picture. On a study wall hung at shoulder height you see the smallest tone changes from the desk chair.
