Corner Piece No. 2 — Fine Art

Corner Piece No. 2 by Sol LeWitt sets a geometric shape into the corner of a white field. The lines run straight and meet at right angles, so the drawing reads as a measured layout rather than a loose sketch. From across the room the sides stay even and the corners hold their shape.

The fine art print is printed on matte paper with a light finish, so pencil grey stays quiet and the white ground does not shine under a lamp. A light frame on a dark wall or a wood frame beside timber furniture lets the drawing sit without shouting.

In a hallway with a bare strip of wall, the vertical line draws the eye down the passage, and from the far end you notice the clean meeting of the two sides.
