"For Pearl" (1970) is a minimalist painting by Brice Marden, known for his abstract works that explore colour and form. This painting features three vertical stripes of color - grey, orange, and yellow-orange. The simplicity of the composition and the subtle variations in the colours create a sense of serenity and contemplation. The artwork is considered to be a classic example of Color Field painting, a style that emerged in the 1950s, focusing on the emotive qualities of colour and its impact on the viewer.
