About this work

The image depicts a lithograph featuring a noose hanging from a rope, with the words "RECENT STILL LIFE" written below it. The background of the image is a dark, mottled gray color. In the lower right corner of the image, the text "MUSEUM OF ART, RISD, FEB. 23 - APR. 3" is visible. This suggests that the lithograph was part of an exhibition at the Museum of Art at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) in 1966. The use of a noose as a central image in the lithograph is striking and thought-provoking. To learn more about the artist's use of lithography, explore the technique of lithography.
