The edges of the sheet are deckled. Under close inspection the sheet is slightly undulated due to artist 's chosen medium and working method. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.

“His motif has orbited into electrifying new fields of color, the horizon dropping away completely, the globes, usually single, now taking on a new radiance, raised with an almost palpable transgression of gravity as they dip and swim steadfastly over the explosive calligraphs below—writhing, kinking, hooked, twisted, contracted, precisely exploded-all the verbs are active in this extraordinary visual grammar.” Brian O’Doherty, "Adolph Gottlieb: The Dualism of an Inner Life,” The New York Times, 23 February 1964, p. 17
