This vibrant aquatint from 1972, created just two years before the artist's death, presents a bold, two-part composition that was a hallmark of his later career. A fiery orange sphere dominates the upper half, its intense color radiating outwards, almost vibrating against the stark white background. Below it, a turbulent mass of deep red and black forms a contrasting element, suggesting a landscape or perhaps a primal force. The tension between these two distinct zones, one seemingly celestial and the other terrestrial, invites contemplation on fundamental forces. Though abstract, the forms evoke a sense of elemental power, a characteristic exploration in the artist's work from this period, simplifying his imagery to its most impactful forms.
