Description
Sol LeWitt’s early wall drawings were based on finite series of what he termed “simple” lines (lines drawn in one of four basic directions: vertical, horizontal, diagonal left, and diagonal right), as well as “superimposed” lines (the four simple lines layered on top of each other). By superimposing the lines in a sequential manner, as seen in Wall Drawing 56, the artist produced progressively darker gradations of tone.
