Royal Presence — Fine Art

Royal Presence - 1982 carries a calm royal tone in the work of Miriam Schapiro. Soft colour blocks sit side by side and the darker tones lean toward purple and deep pink while the lighter areas stay pale. The picture feels arranged rather than painted in a single sweep.

This fine art print comes with a frame in white, wood, dark wood or black. The frame gives the sheet a clear edge against the colours, and the white finish lets the pale areas stay open while a dark wood finish makes the purple tones stand out more.

It sits on the wall above a desk in a study where the lamp throws a warm light across the top shapes. From the chair you see the pale blocks first and the deeper tones appear when you look longer.
