<p>The addition of red pencil on this working proof is particularly curious, as it plays no part in the final edition. Moreover, the red lines appear to form two overlapping hearts, an image absent from Frankenthaler’s oeuvre. Upon further examination, the “hearts” resemble something Jim Dine may have created. In fact, he also worked at Universal Limited Art Editions (U.L.A.E.). When Art Institute staff asked Dine if he may have “doodled” on this discarded sheet, he couldn’t recall. Regardless, this sheet exemplifies the dynamic environment of a print workshop.</p>
