Four Darks in Red

Four Darks in Red is a 1958 painting by American painter Mark Rothko. It is currently in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City.

Description

The painting is composed of four dark, rectangular forms set against a red field. This work, like Rothko's other paintings in the late 1950s, features a dark palette. Four Darks in Red precedes Rothko's Seagram murals, which share this work's red, maroon, and black hues.
