Description
-
This is a watercolor sketch of Long’s Post Rome. In the full print, the center of the design is a large, oval-shaped eye. This is a frequently used motif in Long’s artwork, across many different mediums. Vertical and diagonal rays and bars draw attention towards the eye, which features a man’s face where the pupil would be. The final piece is placed in a cast bronze frame embedded with coins, like this sketch shows. Long’s print was created during his 1990 Prix de Rome fellowship.
