Lithograph in colors, on Rives BFK paper. Signed in pencil and annotated 'trial proof.' Published by Hollander's Workshop, New York. Literature: Lembark L87. Sam Francis’s Untitled (from Portfolio 9) (1967) is a color lithograph on Rives BFK paper that embodies his signature exploration of space, color, and spontaneity. Expanses of white paper dominate the composition, activated by bold splashes and sweeping arcs of red, blue, and yellow that cluster around the edges. Fine splatters and drips punctuate the surface, creating a sense of movement that feels both controlled and improvisational. Published by Hollander’s Workshop in New York in an edition of 100, with this example marked as a trial proof, the work reflects Francis’s interest in balancing openness with energetic painterly gesture.

What is Gestural?
Gestural art is a term that describes painting with freely sweeping brushstrokes. The primary goal of gestural art is to allow the artist to physically express emotional impulses. The varied, yet expressive paint marks are intended to convey the artist's inner thoughts and emotions, which viewers are believed to understand through the dynamic and spontaneous application of paint.
