Hard-ground etching with aquatint printed on Somerset white paper. Untitled (Handsome Young Man) (2010) by Kerry James Marshall is a hard-ground etching with aquatint that exemplifies the artist’s commitment to Black representation in Western art history. Rendered in fine tonal contrasts and intricate textures, the portrait features a young Black man in a patterned garment against a solid dark background. Marshall’s use of printmaking emphasizes the subject’s dignified presence and challenges the historical absence of Black figures in classical portraiture. Printed on Somerset white paper and produced in an edition of 50, the work underscores the artist's enduring focus on visibility, identity, and beauty.

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.
