Signed lower right-hand side. Published by Paulson Fontaine Press. Untitled (Frankenstein) (2010) by Kerry James Marshall is a striking etching that depicts a nude male figure against a deep black background. The figure is composed of intricate white lines and patterns that contrast starkly with the darkness, making the body appear almost spectral. Marshall invokes the myth of Frankenstein’s monster, exploring ideas of otherness, identity, and the construction of personhood. The figure’s posture—simultaneously tense and vulnerable—evokes both strength and alienation, themes central to Marshall’s broader practice of representing Black identity in Western art history. This edition of 50 exemplifies his mastery of printmaking and narrative layering.

What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
