The name of this set ‘Tanz’ (Dance), refers to the historical ‘Dance of Death’. Each print is produced from two plates; the first, the tone plate, provides the bright yellow, green, violet and orange colours, while the second plate provides the black.
While the black surface absorbs most of the incident light, the figures in dance emerge from this darkness as their luminous colours reflect the light.
