East and Beyond with Orange

Description

Frankenthaler was not entirely happy with the registration on several impressions of East and Beyond and had them withheld from the published edition. She returned to Universal Limited Art Editions (U.L.A.E.) a year later and found that a small touch of orange crayon solved the problem. Satisfied, she published them as East and Beyond with Orange.
