Mark Rothko

Associated Names

Mark Rothko

Artist, American, born Russia (now Latvia), 1903 - 1970

The image shows a sketch of a person from the upper body, facing left. The person is in a slightly angled position, with facial features, shoulder-length hair, and a wide-brimmed hat with a prominent band. They wear clothing that appears to be a jacket or garment. Random black marks and smudges add texture to the clothing. An abstract figure is partially sketched on the right with an arm visible. The background is a blank, lightly speckled surface with creases, indicating it's drawn on paper.
