Four Darks in Red is a 1958 painting by American painter Mark Rothko. It is currently in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City.[1]

Description

The painting is composed of four dark, rectangular forms set against a red field. This work, like Rothko's other paintings in the late 1950s, features a dark palette.[1] Four Darks in Red precedes Rothko's Seagram murals, which share this work's red, maroon, and black hues.[2]
