Fifty Days at Iliam Shades of Eternal Night - Cy Twombly
Immerse yourself in the raw, poetic energy of Cy Twombly's "Fifty Days at Iliam Shades of Eternal Night", a masterpiece from his celebrated Fifty Days at Iliam series. This museum-quality fine art print captures the artist's signature blend of abstract expressionism and classical allusion, where frenetic scribbles, smudges, and textual fragments evoke the epic drama of Homer's Iliad. Twombly's work, created in 1978, reimagines ancient myth through a modern, visceral lens, offering a profound meditation on war, memory, and timelessness.
RedKalion presents this archival reproduction on premium 250 gsm (110 lb) matte, uncoated paper, ensuring the texture and subtlety of Twombly's marks are preserved with exceptional fidelity. The natural white, FSC-certified sustainable paper provides a neutral backdrop that enhances the artwork's dynamic contrasts. Housed in a sleek black wooden frame crafted from responsibly sourced oak and ash, this piece features a 20mm (0.79") thick and wide profile—more substantial than classic frames—for a bold, contemporary presence. Protected by shatterproof plexiglass, it arrives ready-to-hang with a complete hanging kit, allowing you to elevate your space with an archival masterpiece that endures.
