Plate IX, from Natural History Part I: Mushrooms, 1974

Plate IX, from Natural History Part I: Mushrooms, 1974 is a mixed media print on Rives Couronne paper from Cy Twombly's celebrated portfolio dedicated to the study of fungi. This striking work exemplifies Twombly's distinctive approach to mark-making, featuring mushroom forms rendered through his characteristic gestural marks, delicate lines, and subtle washes of color.
