Untitled [verso] 

"Untitled [verso]" is a drawing by Mark Rothko, a pioneering figure in Abstract Expressionism. This work, likely created as a study, exhibits Rothko's exploration of form and composition through gestural lines and dark ink blots. The fragmented, seemingly abstract elements, contrast with the precise mathematical calculations on the left side, hinting at the artist's process and his constant engagement with the interplay of order and chaos. This early exploration of gestural abstraction foreshadows Rothko's later development of large-scale, multi-form canvases that became synonymous with his style.
