Untitled — Fine Art

Untitled - 1969 by Brice Marden holds a muted field with a narrow darker band set into it. The tone shifts slowly from one side to the other, so the eye moves across the page instead of stopping. The fine art print keeps that slow change clear, because the matte surface does not throw a shine back at you.

A metal hanger is fitted to the back, so you can put it on a nail or screw and step away. The print goes up straight, with no separate frame to buy.

On a bedroom wall near the bed, you see the soft change in tone first. From the doorway the band looks thin, but from the bed the surface holds its quiet flatness.
