How much is a Mark Rothko painting worth?
1 Answer
How much a Mark Rothko painting is worth depends on its size, historical significance, condition and other factors. In 2012, his painting Orange, Red, Yellow sold for over $86 million at auction in New York City. Rothko was an American painter of Russian Jewish descent. Although he refused to adhere to any art movement, he is generally identified as an Abstract Expressionist. Through a number of stylistic evolutions and artistic influences, Rothko eventually began to define his signature work in color field studies, for which he is now most famous. If you own a Rothko, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can aid you in the valuation process. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Abstract Expressionist art.
