Is the framing material sustainably sourced?

What was the concept behind Richter’s 4096 Colours?
Created in 1974, this work is the final version of Richter's Color Charts. He used a mathematical system to arrange 4,096 distinct colors, aiming to create an objective, industrial aesthetic free from emotional bias.
Are the color squares in this print sharp and distinct?
Yes. Our high-resolution printing process ensures that each of the 4,096 squares is rendered with crisp edges and precise color accuracy, reflecting the industrial precision of Gerhard Richter's original 1974 vision.
