On the Design:

Rothko’s design is a meeting of abstract minimalist sensibility highlighting beige-brown tones, perhaps the most impossibly subtle touch of pastel pink but mainly warm, neutral tones that complement the humble palette beautifully Subtlety is one of the many skillful details at work here, where such playful figures are executed in such a subdued manner that the movement is all the more intriguing and artful—a masterpiece in this way, as in its adaptation of refined geometry to this large-size, scale and texture, the finest in our craft today.

Silk’s natural sheen in this skillful juxtaposition of colorway allows the brighter notes to come to life against the deeper pallet with a bold sense of movement and gravity in this edition where the dimensionality and depth our loom achieved captured the splendor of the original work of renown.
