A bold and gestural composition, this offset lithograph by Willem de Kooning captures the iconic Washington Monument through his signature Abstract Expressionist lens, dissolving the recognizable landmark into dynamic sweeps of line and form. The work reflects de Kooning's mastery of fluid, energetic mark-making, blurring the boundary between representation and abstraction. Printed on wove paper as a full sheet, the lithographic medium allows his spontaneous, painterly impulses to translate with striking immediacy.
