Monotype on white paper. Signed by the artist and dated 1989 lower right in pencil. Annotated G verso. Condition is as new except for a small pinhole in each corner.
Printed in green, black, and grey, this monotype on mould-made paper features the shaded underpass of a bridge. High arches stretch across the width of the composition, painted in wide swaths of translucent ink. Fine lines define detail on the bridge’s abutments. A wide walkway lined with greenery extends beyond the archway.
Found images serve as frequent sources for Zalopany’s large-scale realism. Here, the artist’s strokes of translucent ink build to deep blacks and hazy greys, lending this found landscape a dreamlike quality. A swath of ink defines the panels of sunlight cast across the ground, showcasing the artist’s trademark mastery of light and dark.
