Deluxe and comprehensive, this revelatory volume examines the brilliance of Mark Rothko (1903–1970), a pioneer of the New York School and major figure in the Abstract Expressionist movement. Illustrated with more than 275 images that explore his paintings, prints, and works on paper, this book highlights a combination of his most renowned and lesser-known works; his early figurative and Surrealist pieces to his mesmerising colour-field paintings of immense scale, to the more restricted palette of his luminous later works and his final series of black-and-grey paintings.
