“Farnsworth” Series (1980)

Between July and August of 1980, Yolanda del Riego created a series of 41 monoprints. The series is named after the paper it was printed on: handmade paper from the Farnsworth & Co. Papermakers in San Francisco. Each sheet, with its embedded fibers and threads, is unique.

Many of the monoprints in this series extend beyond the limits of the almost-square paper through chine collé paper extensions.
