Reconsidering a gargantuan masterwork of modernist abstraction This publication presents a new perspective on the German American painter Friedel Dzubas’ (1915–94) rendering of his 60-foot-long abstract mural originally commissioned in 1975 for the Shawmut National Bank of Boston. Beyond pure color field painting, chronicled in never-before-seen documentary photographs, Dzubas’ Last Judgment is presented here as a public expression of religious conviction.
