The Glass #3
1955

This is an abstract black and white print featuring geometric shapes and patterns that create a sense of depth and texture. The composition includes a variety of forms such as grids, diamonds, and irregular shapes, with some areas filled in with cross-hatching or stippling for contrast. The artwork is dated '24-55' and signed by the artist in the lower left corner, with the title "The Glass #3" and the designation "2nd state" handwritten in the lower right corner. The print is on off-white paper with visible plate marks and slight embossing around the image, indicating it is likely a lithograph or etching.
