Twombly similarly combined gestural mark making with printmaking techniques including etching and lithograph, producing bold abstract works that explore color relationships and expressive line in ways closely aligned with Marden's approach in this piece.

Johns worked extensively with etching and lithograph in colors on fine papers, producing sophisticated abstract and semi abstract prints that share Marden's interest in layered color relationships and the expressive possibilities of printmaking as a primary medium.

Ryman brought a similarly rigorous and contemplative approach to color relationships and surface qualities in his prints and works on paper, sharing Marden's commitment to abstraction and the careful exploration of material properties within the printmaking tradition.
