Sean SCULLY | Liliane 1 | Etching and Aquatint, 2010 — available on Composition Gallery

Aquatint with sugarlift, spitbite and hard-ground etching. Somerset Textured White 300 gsm paper. Image dimensions: 61 × 46 cm. Sheet dimensions: 86 × 71 cm. Initialed, dated, and numbered in pencil. // Liliane 1 is the opening statement of Sean Scully's deeply personal suite, establishing the diptych format and contemplative vocabulary that unfolds across the remaining seven works. Warm earth tones and subtle chromatic shifts define this foundational composition, with two stacked rectangular blocks negotiating between density and translucence. The aquatint with sugarlift and hard-ground etching on Somerset paper yields a surface of exceptional softness and depth. From an edition of 40, this 2010 print honours Scully's muse with a work of quiet gravity, setting a meditative tone that resonates throughout the entire Liliane cycle.

What is Hard Edge Art?

Hard Edge art is a style of abstract painting that became popular in the 1960s. It features areas of color separated by crisp, sharp edges that are painted with geometric precision. The term hard-edge painting was coined by art critic Jules Langsner to describe this approach, which contrasts with the softer, more fluid forms of other abstract styles.
