Ellsworth Kelly — Diptych: Dark Blue/Dark Green
Ellsworth Kelly

Diptych: Dark Blue/Dark Green

Two bold, monolithic panels of saturated dark blue and deep green command attention in this minimalist diptych by Ellsworth Kelly, a master of hard-edge abstraction. Each canvas presents a single, unmodulated field of color, inviting the viewer to experience the subtle tension and dialogue between the two closely related yet distinct hues. Published by the prestigious Gemini G.E.L. in Los Angeles, this rare complete set—numbered 45/45—represents the final edition impression, accompanied by signed print documentation and the publisher's blindstamps.

Medium
both signed, annotated 'A/B' and 'B/B' respectively and numbered 45/45 in pencil (there were also 10 artist's proofs), published by Gemini G.E.L., Los Angeles (with their blindstamps and accompanying signed print documentation), both framed.
