This 1972 screenprint incorporates silver foil into its colored composition, creating a luxurious and eye catching surface quality that enhances the symbolic meaning of the title. 'Horse Blinders' refers to the restrictive devices placed on horses to limit their peripheral vision, suggesting themes of controlled perspective and limited awareness. The addition of metallic foil elevates the work beyond traditional screenprinting, adding texture and reflectivity that engage the viewer physically. The directional designation 'East' may indicate geographical or compositional orientation within a larger series. Rosenquist's use of unexpected materials demonstrates his commitment to expanding the visual possibilities of printmaking.
