The arrangement of two forms in a vertical relationship — one above the other, each complete in itself — recalls the compositional logic of the kakemono, the Japanese hanging scroll, read from top to bottom with deliberate attention to how the elements relate to one another. Eclipsed Gold applies this vertical logic to two circles that differ in surface and character but are equal in their presence.
The upper circle carries black-and-white vertical stripes — a graphic, linear treatment that suggests structure and precision. The lower circle has a textured gold surface, warm and slightly irregular, closer to a material surface than to a geometric abstraction. Stacked one above the other on a clear ground, the two forms create a contrast: ordered above, warm below.
Eclipsed Gold suits a hallway, a bedroom wall or a study — rooms where a composed, vertical arrangement works with the architecture. The contrast of gold and black-and-white works against both warm and co . . . Read More >>

Eclipsed Gold suits a hallway, a bedroom wall or a study — rooms where a composed, vertical arrangement works with the architecture. The contrast of gold and black-and-white works against both warm and cool wall colours.
Available as a fine art print on museum-quality paper or framed behind shatter-resistant acrylic glazing. Several sizes available.
Frequently asked questions
What compositional logic lies behind stacking two circles?
The vertical arrangement creates a relationship read from top to bottom. The striped circle is taken in first; the gold circle grounds the composition. The interest lies in the contrast of surfaces.
What do the vertical stripes in the upper circle evoke?
Structure and precision — a pattern that implies order and repetition. Above the warm gold circle, they create a dialogue between the geometric and the organic.
What kind of framing suits it best?
A minimal frame in natural oak, ash or black lets the graphic simplicity of the composition read without competition.
Does Eclipsed Gold belong to a series?
The composition shares its visual vocabulary with Eclipse Horizon, Golden Horizon Eclipse and Geometric Balance. These works sit well together as a group.
