Elevate Your Correspondence with Sam Gilliam’s Modernist Vision

Experience the profound depth of Chehaw By Sam Gilliam with this exclusive pack of 10 museum-quality post cards. Sam Gilliam, a legendary figure in Lyrical Abstraction and the Washington Color School, redefined the boundaries of the canvas. Chehaw, a seminal work from 1976, showcases his mastery of texture and rhythmic color, translating the physical presence of his large-scale paintings into a portable, intimate format.

At RedKalion, we believe that even the smallest reproduction should retain the integrity of the original masterpiece. These post cards are not mere stationery; they are fine art prints. Utilizing sophisticated 12-color fine art printing technology, we capture the nuanced layers and subtle chromatic shifts that Gilliam intended, providing a vibrancy and color accuracy that standard 4-color printing simply cannot replicate.

Each post card is crafted to meet the highest standards of the fine art market. The smooth matte finish ensures a glare-free viewing experience, allowing the viewer to appreciate the intricate details of Gilliam’s composition. Printed on 200 gsm (80 lb) FSC-certified paper with a thickness of 0.26 mm, these cards offer a tactile, premium feel that signifies lasting quality.
