Lithograph // Wayne Thiebaud's Sundae Color is a lithograph that reflects his signature style of painting everyday objects with a heightened sense of color and texture. In this piece, a decadent sundae takes center stage, displayed in a delicate glass dish. The vibrant scoops of ice cream—yellow, pink, and red—are topped with a cherry, and the composition is framed by a wooden surface that grounds the image. Thiebaud’s characteristic use of thick brushstrokes and rich color imbues the sundae with a tactile, almost edible quality, turning this simple dessert into an iconic, pop-art inspired object.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
