Best known as a painter, the New York artist Terry Winters is one of the most versatile and prolific printmakers working today. He usually bases his lithographs, intaglios, and relief prints on preliminary drawings in various media. This enormous lithograph—his largest print—shows his interest during the 1980s and early 1990s in combining abstraction with botanical, zoological, or architectural imagery. In those years Winters often hugely enlarged forms that are microscopic in nature, such as the spherical masses of fertilized ova suggested here. He has depicted the ova at the stage of embryonic growth when more and more segmentation takes place, leading to organ development. Winters rendered the cellular forms chiefly with black and nearly black lithography crayons and extended them with plantlike tendrils. This print is the earliest of thirty-seven lithographs, etchings, and woodcuts by Winters donated to the Museum this year by Susan Sosnick, whose late husband, Robert, collected the artist's work in all media. It is one of 117 prints by Winters, ranging in date from 1983 to 2001, in the Metropolitan's collection.
