Swan Lake #2 — Fine Art

Swan Lake number two from one thousand nine hundred sixty one shows a pale field where broad washes of white and pink sit on the sheet. The marks look like water moving slowly over the surface. Helen Frankenthaler worked with thin colour spreads in this post war abstract painting period.

This fine art print sits in a frame with a back panel and arrives ready to hang when you choose that option. The paper is matte, so the pale pinks and whites keep their soft feel and there is no shine under a lamp.

In a bedroom above a narrow dresser you see the wide pale shapes first. Closer to the glass you notice the thin colour lines that run across the sheet.
