The artwork, titled “Wolfeboro I,” was created by the artist Frank Stella in 1966. This piece belongs to the Hard Edge Painting movement and is categorized within the abstract genre.
“Wolfeboro I” is a quintessential example of the hard-edge painting style, characterized by its clean lines and geometric precision. The composition features a dominant angular form resembling an abstract, multi-faceted shape with a sharp, black outline set against a neutral background. In the lower portion of the artwork, a trapezoidal shape in blue and gray hues is prominently displayed, enhancing the visual dynamism. The interplay of bold, contrasting colors and shapes imparts a sense of depth and three-dimensionality, despite the flat, two-dimensional medium. The minimalist aesthetic and meticulous execution are hallmarks of Frank Stella’s contribution to modern abstract art.
