Mark Rothko was a pivotal figure in the evolution of postwar abstract painting in the United States. Renowned for his luminous compositions of the 1950s and ’60s, his work is characterized by soft-edged rectangular shapes and expansive, delicate color fields. Rothko created his paintings on both paper and canvas, frequently at grand scales, believing that his art—regardless of size—could engage viewers on a physical level. These remarkable works foster deep contemplation and spiritual reflection. The National Gallery of Art holds the most extensive public collection of Rothko’s oeuvre, comprising approximately 1,100 pieces across paper, canvas, and panel.
