Sol LeWitt - Original Gouache

1998

This original gouache by Sol LeWitt reveals a rare, more painterly and intuitive side of the artist’s practice.

The gouache is signed and dated in pencil lower right (“S. LeWitt 98”) and executed on thick Fabriano paper with dry stamp, confirming its authenticity.

The composition consists of deep layers of purple and blue, creating an almost landscape-like abstraction. Transparency and density alternate, while the lighter blue area contrasts with the darker purple section. The result is a serene, spatial composition with strong visual depth.

In contrast to his well-known conceptual wall drawings and modular structures, this work demonstrates a freer approach. Seriality and repetition remain present, but are translated here into a more meditative and painterly language.

This unique gouache is professionally framed, mounted on purple linen and float-mounted in a custom-made acid-free passe-partout, presented in a handcrafted wooden frame with UltraVue® UV70 museum glass.

Framed size approx. 54 × 54 cm.
