Plateau 1956

Anthony Gross's "Plateau" (1956) is a striking black and white lithograph. A landscape is captured from a high viewpoint, with the focus on a cluster of trees in the foreground. Gross utilizes bold, expressive lines to convey the skeletal structure of the trees, creating a sense of both dynamism and stillness. The use of dark lines against a lighter background gives the artwork a strong sense of contrast and depth. "Plateau" is a powerful example of Gross's ability to capture the essence of nature through the medium of printmaking.
