Lust and Delight — Fine Art

Lust and Delight by Hans Hofmann shows broad strokes of colour moving across the sheet. The marks feel quick and the tones shift from warm to cool as they cross the surface.

This belongs with his push and pull painting, where colour blocks push against each other. The white frame gives the paper a clean border that separates the image from the wall.

The white edge keeps the bright colours clear and does not add another tone into the scene. You hang this fine art print above the dining table. From the chair you notice the rushed brush marks and the way the warm field meets the cool one.
