Four Blues Two Discs 1970

"Four Blues Two Discs" is a 1970 print by British artist Patrick Heron (1920-1999). This abstract work features a bold, simplified composition of geometric shapes, primarily circles and squares, rendered in a range of blue hues against a deep blue background. The interplay of these shapes and colours creates a sense of dynamism and depth, characteristic of Heron's abstract style, which he developed while exploring the work of artists like Henri Matisse and Piet Mondrian. This print exemplifies Heron's focus on colour relationships and their ability to evoke emotion and create a unique visual experience.
