«In particular, Washingtonians will enjoy seeing beloved local artists Gene Davis, Sam Gilliam, Morris Louis and Kenneth Noland in the

Published concurrently with an exhibition at New York's Knoedler &
Company, this handsome volume — the cover
of which features Frankenthaler's
great painting, «A Green Thought in a Green Shade» (1981)-- pays tribute to the
painter's long and distinguished career, with a fully illustrated survey
of the works chosen for the exhibition, which represent quintessential paintings from each period
of her career.
