About this work

This painting is a letterpress work with text in a simple frame. It's interesting because the text appears to be a manifesto, which was a common theme in the artist's work. The use of letterpress also shows the artist's experimentation with different mediums. Check out the technique of chiaroscuro to learn more about how artists use contrast to create depth.
