Mid 1960s silkscreen poster on fine art paper published on the occasion of the legendary painter Helen Frankenthaler's one person show at Andre Emmerich Gallery in the 1960s - one of the more desirable and productive periods. (Helen would later follow her top saleswoman at Emmerich, Ann Freedman, to Knoedler gallery. But that's another story for another day.) Posters like this from back in the 1960s were silkscreened and often printed on high quality lithographic paper, unlike today's digital prints. The difference in quality is palpable.
