Mark Rothko

Associated Names
Mark Rothko
Artist, American, born Russia (now Latvia), 1903 - 1970
The image features blurred blocks of color and sweeping brushstrokes that form abstract shapes and lines across the canvas. These shapes suggest the outline of two figures seated on a couch. The abstract depiction creates a vague resemblance to a cozy domestic scene, with hints of vibrant colors for clothing such as blue, yellow, and red. The brushstrokes bring an impressionistic feel, focusing more on the essence of the figures than on detailed depiction.
