| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating mature work of the late 1960s and 1970s, when he fully realized the abstract experimentation of his style in geometric syntheses of recreational, domestic or urban scenes that employed a cool, almost mechanical paint application, clean-edged, flat areas of interlocking forms, conscious use of negative space, and graphic patterns of striping and outlining. Because the article is about an artist and his work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize this key late stage in his work. Himmelfarb's work of this type and this painting in particular is discussed in the article and by art historians cited in the article, as a representative work of this phase. |
