Kelly's work shares Mangold's commitment to geometric abstraction rendered with precise, clean forms and bold color fields. His prints and paintings similarly explore the relationship between shape, color, and negative space within a minimalist vocabulary.

Stella's geometric prints and etchings, particularly his early shaped compositions, reflect a similar engagement with hard edged abstraction and the expressive potential of geometric forms in printmaking. His use of color within structured frameworks closely parallels Mangold's approach in this ring composition.

Serra's printmaking practice, especially his large scale etchings and aquatints, demonstrates a shared interest in using the technical qualities of intaglio processes to explore elemental geometric forms. His minimalist sensibility and emphasis on the physical presence of shape align directly with Mangold's ring imagery.
