Homage to the Square VI is a 1967 by Josef Albers, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows three nested squares. The outer frame is a dark green. Inside that is a teal band, then a pale gray, and finally a bright yellow square at the center. The colors are flat with no shading or texture. The artist used simple shapes and bold colors to create a clean, balanced look. The way the squares fit inside each other makes your eye move from one to the next. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this print in person.
