Untitled
1969

A colorful abstract artwork featuring a grid of nine squares, with the central square filled with a patchwork of smaller, multicolored triangles and squares. The top and right borders of the grid are softly shaded with a gradient of orange and gray, while the bottom border has a yellow to orange gradient. The image includes handwritten text and numbers at the bottom, indicating it is an artist's proof from 1969.
