The image shows an arrangement of textured lines and shapes forming an abstract composition. There is a central circular element at the top surrounded by a larger, open triangular shape. The texture resembles a weathered, natural surface like tree bark. Surrounding forms suggest a silhouette of a figure with arms and a bucket-like shape at the lower center, dotted with small circles.

Antelope Priest

Frederick O'Hara · 1961 · 4-color lithograph on Nacre paper ·  Accession ID  1964.8.2455

The image contains various jagged and wavy lines creating an energetic scene with angular shapes. A central black shape resembles a charging bull, with sharp horns and outstretched limbs. On the right, a figure with elongated limbs resembles a matador, positioned with one leg raised and an arm extended. The background features swirling patterns in orange and brown hues. The scene conveys movement and confrontation through abstract forms and vibrant colors.

Taurina

Frederick O'Hara · 1953 · color woodcut ·  Accession ID  1954.12.96

The image displays an abstract composition of shapes and lines, forming overlapping and intersecting patterns. The fragmented elements within the shapes suggest the presence of two human-like figures. The lines and facets resemble broken glass or a kaleidoscopic pattern, creating a complex visual texture. Curved lines and transitions contribute to the perception of depth and dimension, evoking draped fabric or flowing hair. The fragmented faces and bodies create a familiar yet abstract human form.
