Abstract Composition in Black, Gray, and Blue 

"Abstract Composition in Black, Gray, and Blue" is a work by American Abstract Expressionist painter Mark Rothko. The work, characterized by an expressive and gestural style, shows the artist's early exploration of color and form. The image is dominated by bold strokes of black, gray, and blue, creating a sense of depth and dynamism within the composition. The inclusion of a red border adds an element of contrast and further emphasizes the abstract nature of the piece. This work, created in Rothko's early career, foreshadows the minimalist color field paintings that he would become famous for later in his career.
