"American Pewter with Burroughs IV" is part of the collaboration between Rauschenberg and the American writer William S. Burroughs, who sent Gemini a list of short phrases for Rauschenberg to respond to with montages of images from the artist’s own photographs. Burroughs’s short texts were embossed on the lithographs. There is silver ink in each of the prints in this series, which led the artist to opt for a composition more sparse and coloration more subtle than his work is known for.
