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.
