Designated with a numeral to distinguish it from other works made on the same day, this drawing reveals how intensely productive Richter's daily sessions became in this final phase of his career. The pencil medium allows for nuanced gradations of tone and delicate linear precision that reward close, sustained viewing. The parenthetical numbering system reflects a quasi-archival sensibility consistent with Richter's lifelong Atlas project and his meticulous cataloguing of his own output. This work exemplifies how restraint of means can generate richly layered meaning.
