This study for "Homage to the Square" by Josef Albers exemplifies his exploration of color relationships. Created in 1959, the work features a central square composed of four smaller squares, each a different shade of yellow, blue, brown, and orange. Surrounding this central motif is a larger frame, divided into four rectangles of varying shades of green and grey. This artwork exemplifies Albers' fascination with color interaction and the way that the placement and juxtaposition of colors can impact perception, creating a sense of depth and movement.
