Two Women Reclining 

"Two Women Reclining" is a pencil sketch by American artist Mark Rothko, known for his abstract expressionist paintings. This drawing, executed in a gestural and expressive style, depicts two figures in a reclining pose, capturing the essence of human form with loose and fluid lines. The sketch demonstrates Rothko's early exploration of figuration, which would later evolve into his signature abstract style, characterized by large blocks of color and minimalist forms. The drawing's simplicity and directness reveal Rothko's keen eye for capturing human anatomy in a raw and unadulterated way.
