II : 6
From a construction of 1944, Fenced, originally a linocut. Here seen in thin and heavy straight lines. On the left the ink used is black, and on the right, violet-brown. The heavy lines appear in three large and one small field. When we observe the right print more closely, we see that the areas containing the heavy lines look surprisingly as if they were printed in straight black, as if the same ink were used on both sides. Now, looking back to the left print, the areas with thin lines and the empty area at the top appear suddenly — violetish! We have no explanation for these changes.
