Signed, dated and numbered in pencil. Accompanied by the original Gemini G.E.L. print documentation, signed by the artist and the printer, Kenneth Tyler. Published by Gemini G.E.L., Los Angeles Jasper Johns’s Figure 7, Black Numerals Series is a 1968 lithograph that exemplifies his engagement with symbols and layered imagery. Centered around the numeral “7,” the composition incorporates a fragmented image of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, partially obscured by gestural black marks, drips, and sweeping forms. The interplay between recognizable imagery and abstraction reflects Johns’s interest in perception and meaning, challenging how viewers interpret familiar signs. Produced at Gemini G.E.L. and accompanied by documentation signed by both the artist and master printer Kenneth Tyler, this edition of 70 highlights Johns’s pivotal role in postwar American printmaking.

What is automatism?
Automatism refers to a technique in the creative process that accesses material from the unconscious or subconscious mind. It is based on Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalytic method of free association. Artists value this process for its ability to inspire creative thought and spontaneous creation.
