Frank Stella Imola Three II, 1984 is an engaging composition in grey, blue, yellow and red from the artist's Circuits Series of 1982-84. The background of this work is rendered with chaotic black linework winding over a soft gray, and two red bands line the top and bottom edges of the composition. The foreground of the work is made up of larger forms in varying shades of blue, red and yellow. Fascinatingly, these marks in the foreground are the same ones that appear in the artist's Imola Three I from two years earlier. In creating this work, Stella revisits his initial illustration of the Imola race track, revealing the effect his visit to the site in the 1970s had on him. Unlike Imola Three I, a relief and engraving, this work is a relief and woodcut. These printmaking methods allow the artist to achieve drawing-like and painterly marks and expand his Circuits Series.

Frank Stella Imola Three II, 1984 is part of a portfolio of 16 works in the artist's Circuits Series from 1982-84. This body of work is inspired by his interest in race tracks that he visited all over the world. Also featured in this portfolio are Talladega Three I , Talladega Three II , Talladega Three III , Talladega Five I , Estoril Three II , Estoril Five I , Estoril Five II , Imola Three I ,  Imola Three II, State I , Imola Three IV, Imola Five II , Imola Five II, State I, Pergusa Three, Pergusa Three, State I, and Pergusa Three Double.
