Uriel — Fine Art

A broad band of pale colour sits inside a wider field of blue in Uriel by Barnett Newman. The painted mark runs from top to bottom and splits the surface. From across the room the two areas read as one flat plane.

This fine art print is ready to hang on arrival. The paper holds the blue without shine, so the pale band stays soft under a lamp. A light frame on a dark wall lets the blue field sit forward, and a dark frame on a pale wall pushes the band back.

It hangs on a short wall above a desk, with the bottom edge at eye level when you sit. From the chair you notice the quiet split of the field and the steady tone of the blue. The pale band stays level and the blue stays even.
