Associated Names
Mark Rothko

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

Three people are depicted in a simplistic, linear style on a plain, textured background. The figure on the left is seated, with a cap on their head and one arm across their body. In the center, a person faces forward with their head resting on an open hand. On the right, another person is reclined, holding an object near their face. The individual on the right appears to have a hat or hood on their head, and is shown interacting with the object in a focused manner. The background is plain and textured, drawing attention to the arrangement and positions of the subjects.
