Etching and aquatint in colors, on Fabriano paper, 1973, signed and dated in pencil, numbered on an edition of 43 (there were also three artist's proofs), published by 2RC Editrice, Rome, with their blindstamp, with full margins. -- Image: 8.5 x 8 in. (215 x 200 mm.) Sheet: 19.5 x 13.6 in. (496 x 345 mm.) -- Published in Harrison 44 // Helen Frankenthaler’s Pranzo Italiano (1973) is an etching and aquatint that demonstrates her abstract expressionist approach through subtle colors and organic forms. The artwork, printed on Fabriano paper, features a warm orange, textural form at the top of the composition, delicately contrasted by a thin blue line and a soft yellow stripe near the base. The simplicity and fluidity of these elements evoke a sense of spontaneity and movement, hallmarks of Frankenthaler’s style. The use of negative space emphasizes the central abstract forms, inviting the viewer to interpret the work’s evocative and lyrical qualities. The piece is signed, dated, and numbered in pencil, with the blindstamp of 2RC Editrice, Rome, underscoring its authenticity and limited edition status.

What is abstract expressionism?
Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
