Elevate Your Space with Gerhard Richter’s 4900 Colours (2007)
Experience the pinnacle of contemporary abstraction with this museum-quality reproduction of Gerhard Richter’s iconic 4900 Colours. Originally conceived in 2007, this work represents the ultimate evolution of Richter’s fascination with color charts, a journey that began in 1966. This specific iteration is deeply linked to his monumental stained-glass window for the Cologne Cathedral, utilizing a sophisticated aleatory process—the systematic use of chance—to arrange vibrant hues without subjective bias.
As a fine art print curated by RedKalion, this piece serves as both a conceptual masterwork and a stunning visual centerpiece. Richter’s exploration of objective color placement challenges the viewer to find order in chaos, making it an essential acquisition for collectors of modern and contemporary art.
Archival Materials & Sophisticated Craftsmanship
At RedKalion, we believe a masterpiece deserves an equally masterful presentation. This museum-quality reproduction is printed on 250 gsm (110 lb) archival, natural white paper. The matte, uncoated finish ensures that every one of the vibrant squares is rendered with depth and clarity, free from distracting glare. Unlike standard prints, our paper has a thickness of 0.29 mm (11.4 mils), providing the structural integrity required for a lifetime of display.
The artwork arrives housed in a premium black wooden frame, crafted from responsibly sourced oak and ash. Measuring 20mm (0.79") in width and thickness, our frames offer a more substantial, gallery-grade profile than the common 14mm alternative. Each piece is protected by shatterproof plexiglass, ensuring the safety of your investment while maintaining crystal-clear visibility.

What is the significance of 4900 Colours in Richter's career?
4900 Colours (2007) is the culmination of Richter's 'Color Chart' series. It explores the relationship between chance and aesthetic harmony, famously informing his design for the Cologne Cathedral’s south transept window.
Is the color arrangement in the print random?
Richter utilized a chance-based computer program to determine the placement of the 4,900 colored squares. This aleatory technique removes the artist's personal bias, creating an objective, universal exploration of pure color.
