About the Item
This moody composition depicts an abstracted waterscape—perhaps reeds waving gently, emerging from the water in which a cloudy sky is reflected. This etching is from Mark Tobey’s 1971 portfolio Transitions. Of his attempt to capture the transition of seasons, Tobey stated: "It's trying to capture that transition and make it tangible. Make it sing. You might say it's bringing the intangible into tangible".

John Cage once said of going on a walk with Mark Tobey: "It was the first time that someone else had given me a lesson in looking without prejudice, someone who didn't compare what he was seeing with something before, who was sensitive to the finest nuances of light. Tobey would stop on the sidewalks, sidewalks which we normally didn't notice when we were walking, and his gaze would immediately turn them into a work of art. He was attentive to the slightest detail. For him, everything was alive. He had an extraordinary sense of the presence of things."

Mark Tobey
Mark George Tobey (December 11, 1890 – April 24, 1976) was an American painter. His densely structured compositions, inspired by Asian calligraphy, resemble Abstract expressionism, although the motives for his compositions differ philosophically from most Abstract Expressionist painters.
