Two panels, each 67 1/2 × 48 1/2 inches (171.45 × 123.19 cm)
This painting is one of the first works of Donald Judd’s to use a repeating form. Judd regularly used only one or two colors in his work from this period until the 1980s, when he introduced his painted aluminum pieces, of which untitled, 1984, is an early example.
