The artwork titled “Cedar Hill” was created by Helen Frankenthaler in 1983. Rendered using the medium of woodcut on paper, this piece embodies the principles of the Lyrical Abstraction art movement, falling under the genre of abstract art.
The artwork features a gentle amalgamation of pastel hues that seem to float and shift across the paper. Predominantly infused with soft shades of pink, blue, and green, the piece exudes a serene and meditative aura. Subtle drips and stains appear to bleed into the composition, creating a sense of depth and fluidity. A singular, fine red line delicately intersects the piece, providing a contrasting focal point without disrupting the balance of the overall composition. The textures and hues blend softly, suggesting an ethereal landscape that remains open to the viewer’s interpretation.
