Helen Frankenthaler, Head of the Meadow, 1967 in the home of Andy Williams

titled and dated ""Head of the Meadow" Summer 1967" on the stretcher acrylic on canvas 83 7/8 x 124 1/4 in. (213.3 x 315.5 cm)

In her new studio in the woods of Cape Cod during the summer of 1967, Helen Frankenthaler created Head of the Meadow, a work situated in the pantheon of paintings in which her stain technique crystallized into breathtaking vistas of pure color. Executed during a time when she was making some of her best paintings to date, Head of the Meadow is a superb example from the body of work she executed while splitting time between New York and Provincetown, which presaged the monumental paintings of land, sky, and water she would paint later in her career. Soon after its completion, Head of the Meadow became the first work by Frankenthaler that Andy Williams, the now legendary singer behind such classics as “Moon River,” added to his budding collection of modern and contemporary art, in which the painting remained for decades.

Not particularly insightful Williams quote-

“I really fell in love with Color Field because I just like color” — Andy Williams

Andy had Kenneth Noland too, so maybe he's all right
