About this work

This image shows a single tall black rectangle dead center on a light background. The edges are crisp and straight, with no other shapes or details. The paper has a thin, off-white border around it. The black shape is the only thing here—no people, no landscape, just color and space. The artist signed it in the corner with the year 1969. If you like this kind of simplicity, check out the technique: aquatint.
