1957-D No. 1 1957

Clyfford Still’s abstract painting, *1957-D No. 1,* is a prime example of his signature style. Created in 1957, the painting utilizes a limited palette of black, yellow, and white. The vibrant yellow streaks, applied with a palette knife, rise up against a dark, mysterious background. These bold brushstrokes and dynamic composition create a sense of energy and depth. Still, a leading figure in Abstract Expressionism, was known for his large-scale, gestural canvases, often characterized by a unique and evocative color palette.
