Homage to the Square Apparition 1959 — Fine Art

Concentric squares sit inside one another in Homage to the Square Apparition 1959. The shapes shift in shade from the outer ring toward the centre. Josef Albers stacked the bands so each one changes the one next to it. The picture stays flat and does not move.

This fine art print arrives ready to hang, with a metal hanger fitted to the back that goes straight onto a nail or screw. No separate frame to buy. The paper is matte, so the soft shade changes between the squares stay even under room light.

It fits a bedroom wall above a low bed. From the foot of the bed you see the nested squares as a calm block of tone. Up close the edges between the bands stay clear and the paper looks even.
