The prints in this portfolio, which are related to Indiana's Polygon paintings of 1962, are Triangle, Square, Pentagon, Hexagon, Heptagon, Octagon, and Nonagon. In the prints the artist changed the proportions of the figures, giving greater prominence to the numerals and eliminating the text that encircled them in the paintings.
