Two Yellows — Fine Art

Two Yellows - 1959 shows two bands of yellow paint set against a darker ground. The yellow runs from one side to the other in a single steady direction. Gene Davis painted these stripes with hard edges that hold one colour each.

The print comes as a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. The frame gives the picture its own edge and keeps it flat on the wall. The back panel covers the rear so the surface stays clean. A fine art print keeps the paint bands tight and even.

It works in a bedroom beside a tall lamp. From the bed you notice the two yellow bands first. The darker ground settles the room. The yellow does not shout. It stays quiet against the wall.
