Tinsnip 1973 by Jim Dine — Fine Art

Tinsnip 1973 by Jim Dine shows a collection of everyday metal tools laid out together. The shapes sit in a row, each one drawn with clear outlines and a few shaded areas.

This fine art print is ready to hang on arrival. The paper stays matte, so the greys stay soft and there is no shine under a lamp. A white frame gives the picture a clean edge on the wall.

The white moulding keeps the picture plain and lets the metal forms read without distraction. It hangs well above a kitchen sink, where the washing up cycle brings the metal tools into view each morning.
