Throat 1965 — Fine Art

A painted throat sits in the middle of the sheet for Throat 1965. Jim Dine often painted body parts with strong outlines and flat colour. The marks here look like a drawn outline over a solid paint layer. The shape reads as a single body part rather than a scene.

This is a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. The paint layer and the drawn outline stay separate from the glass, so the colours do not shift under a lamp. The framing keeps the edges clean and the picture sits flat on the wall.

It works on a bedroom wall near the bed, where the outline catches the morning light. From the doorway you see the shape first, then the paint layer behind it. The throat outline stays clear even when the room is dim.
