About this work

This abstract lithograph features a central, concentric circle design in black and white, with a subtle yellow hue. The outer circle is slightly irregular, while the inner circles are more precise. The background is a mix of black, white, and yellow, with visible brushstrokes. A notable detail is the use of lithography, a technique that involves drawing on stone or metal plates to create prints. This method allows for unique textures and patterns, evident in the varying tones and lines throughout the piece. For more on the artist behind this work, explore the world of Lee Bontecou.
