Ditone print, numbered and signed on the back // Metro Mattress #4 by Ed Ruscha is a mixed-media print that presents a striking image of two abandoned mattresses stacked on top of each other. The soft, muted colors, combined with fine detailing, suggest both the textures and the worn-out nature of the mattresses, with visible stains and frayed edges. The artwork's minimalist background contrasts with the intricate patterns of the mattresses, evoking themes of urban decay and the passage of time. Ruscha’s work often reflects a fascination with overlooked urban elements, turning mundane objects into contemplative subjects. This piece, part of a limited edition series, is numbered and signed on the back, adding a layer of exclusivity to its commentary on disposability in modern society.

What is Lettrism?
Lettrism is an art form that uses letters, words, and symbols to create artwork. The movement was established in Paris in the 1940s and later gained popularity in the 1950s in America. Lettrisme is the French spelling of the movement's name, derived from the French word for letter.
