Fragments of painted stencil-like lettering from one of the longest-lasting contenders on my own top ten list of favorite paintings at the San Francisco Museum of Modern ArtLand's End, painted in 1963 by Jasper Johns. If you needed a single painting to represent the unlikely link between Abstract Expressionism and Pop, you could do worse than rely on this one.
