Red Baron 1966

"Red Baron" is a 1966 painting by American artist Gene Davis. The painting is a prime example of Color Field painting, a style of abstract art that emerged in the 1950s and 60s. Davis, known for his dynamic use of color, creates a vibrant composition with bold vertical stripes of varying widths and colors. The artist’s interest in color and form is evident in the striking contrast and rhythmic movement that are characteristic of Color Field work.
