Image: 24 × 18.8 in (61 × 48 cm). Sheet: 36 × 27.25 in (91 × 69 cm). Signed, dated and numbered to lower margin. Published by Marlborough Graphics, New York. Literature: Associated American Artists 73. Crimson Ground by Adolph Gottlieb is a 1972 screenprint that showcases his signature use of symbolic abstraction and color field composition. A stark white circle hovers above a smaller black dot, both suspended in a vivid crimson rectangle that dominates the print. Beneath these forms, a band of gestural black and white brushstrokes adds a dynamic, almost calligraphic energy. The contrast between the geometric simplicity of the circles and the expressive markings below reflects Gottlieb's interest in the tension between order and spontaneity. Published by Marlborough Graphics and listed in Associated American Artists 73, this work exemplifies the artist's mature visual language.

What is Colour Field Painting?
Colour Field Painting is an abstract style characterized by large areas of a single color or simple, solid colors. The term was first used in the 1950s to describe the work of three American Abstract Expressionist painters—Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still. Their work emphasized the emotional power of color and the creation of vast, meditative spaces through expansive color fields.
