Etching, aquatint, and drypoint in colors on Magnani paper. Hand-signed by artist. // Broome Street at Night is an evocative mixed-media print by Helen Frankenthaler from 1987, combining etching, aquatint, and drypoint techniques to create a deeply atmospheric nocturnal landscape. The composition is dominated by layers of somber grey and black that suggest the darkness of a city street at night, punctuated by a luminous cerulean blue circle — like a streetlight or moon — and a horizontal band of vivid chartreuse green that evokes the glow of neon or distant illumination. Delicate orange traces and white scratched lines add subtle warmth and movement. This large-scale print demonstrates Frankenthaler’s remarkable ability to translate her celebrated color-field painting approach into the intaglio medium.

What is Colour Field Painting?
Colour Field Painting is an abstract style characterized by large areas of a single color or simple, solid colors. The term was first used in the 1950s to describe the work of three American Abstract Expressionist painters—Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still. Their work emphasized the emotional power of color and the creation of vast, meditative spaces through expansive color fields.
