Topography in Aqua No. 102 (8 x 10 original papercut)

'This unique piece is intricately hand cut from five layers of high quality, acid-free cardstock. The top layer is a bright white, while the layers underneath are in ever-darker shades of a slightly textured aqua. The back is signed and dated as an original piece. The up and down orientation is yours to set.

The work measures 8 x 10 inches (about 20 x 30 cm), and is about 1/8" thick. It will be sent to you carefully wrapped and supported to ensure it arrives safely.'

The intention in 1968 was to do an edition of 25. Documentation shows that five of each were made in 1968. In the archives of the estate, labels (with edition numbers in Fred's handwriting) were found for 7 of the blue, 7 of the orange, and 8 of the violet pieces. All the numbers between 6/25 - 18/25 cannot be verified by the estate. 4 artist's proofs and one exhibition copy exist as well.
