Black on Black - silkscreen (or lithograph?) colour prints #9 & #10
Notes
This item contains two original black on black silkscreen (or lithograph?) prints (#9 & #10 - both stamped and numbered) from an edition of 250 - both protected in original numbered folders with rice-paper protection slips. Merton and Reinhardt were friends in Columbia and continued to be so after Merton became a monk. In 1957 Merton requested and received an original black on black painting from Reinhardt to aid in his prayer life. In a journal entry of November 17, Merton described the painting, “Almost invisible cross on a black background. As though immersed in darkness and trying to emerge from it . . . You have to look hard to see the cross. One must turn away from everything else and concentrate on the picture as though peering through a window into the night . . . I should say a very ‘holy’ picture—helps prayer—an ‘image’ without features to accustom the mind at once to the night of prayer—and to help one set aside trivial and useless images that wander into prayer and spoil it.” - from Cunningham, Lawrence S. (editor) A Search for Solitude: The Journals of Thomas Merton, vol. 3. HarperSanfrancisco, 1996.
