- Subsequent Title Comment
- This etching went through eight states before being editioned for the first time, in 2008, as Road. Its reworking in two further states in the following year saw the addition of dark clouds, rain and a bare tree – alterations that clearly gave the image a seasonal character. In its ninth state, the work was retitled Winter, and after being taken through a tenth state it was printed in a second edition. In 2018, Amor revisited this plate, and this state was retitled The Road, turning the image towards to its initial title (Road, 2008). In The Road, Amor has amended the supporting structures for the roadway, removing one of the three piers. This amendment gives the structure a simpler profile and opens up the space underneath the roadway. Four states were made as Road, and the fourth and final state was printed in a third edition.
