Lithograph on Special Arjomari paper - Signed (F. Stella) and dated (’71) in pencil, lower right - From Newfoundland Series - Published by Gemini G.E.L., Los Angeles - Literature: Axsom 53, Gemini 273 - Image: 31 7/8 x 31 7/8in (81 x 81cm). - Sheet 37 7/8 x 38in (96.2 x 96.5cm) River of Ponds IV by Frank Stella is a 1971 lithograph from his Newfoundland Series, printed in color on Special Arjomari paper. Known for his contributions to minimalism and post-painterly abstraction, Stella explores geometric precision and rhythmic form in this work. The composition centers around intersecting curvilinear and rectilinear shapes, rendered in muted pastels—peach, mint, seafoam, and gray. These shapes evoke a sense of motion and depth, while maintaining the flatness of the print surface. The lithograph exemplifies Stella's shift from stark black paintings to more complex color and form interactions, a hallmark of his 1970s output. Produced in collaboration with the Gemini G.E.L. workshop in Los Angeles, this piece is part of a series inspired by Canadian topography, with titles referencing locations in Newfoundland.

What is lyrical abstraction ?
Lyrical abstraction is a descriptive term characterizing a type of abstract painting closely related to Abstract Expressionism, in use from the 1940s to the present. The term can also describe two distinct but related trends in post-World War II modernist painting. This art movement originated in Paris, France, after the war, emphasizing personal expression, spontaneity, and the emotional use of color and form.
