- Physical Description
- This work is a burnt orange square. Within this color area is a circle outlined in brown, that touches all four edges of the square, and a smaller square outlined in white.
- Subject Matter
- "Seven Aquatints" was Robert Mangold’s first set of intaglio prints. Like most of his print work, this series was based on his contemporaneous paintings exploring the serial relationship of geometric forms, in this case a circle and rectangles. In his work from the 1970s, line and color are treated as formal and conceptual equivalents.
