Mark Rothko No. 1 (1949) Hand-Painted Oil Painting Reproduction | Dafen Village Art Studio

Own a piece of modern art history with Mark Rothko’s pivotal No. 1 (1949). Executed in 1949—the watershed year in which Rothko developed his legendary “Multiforms” into floating rectangular color fields—No. 1 represents the dawn of classic Abstract Expressionism. Featuring glowing layers of warm yellow, orange, red, and soft-edged translucent shapes across a vertical canvas (original dimensions: 78 ¼ by 38 ⅝ in. / 198.8 by 98.1 cm), this masterpiece radiates light, spatial presence, and emotional resonance.

Our studio reproduction is 100% hand-painted with artist-grade oil pigments on natural linen canvas, meticulously created stroke by stroke by senior fine artists at our Dafen Village Oil Painting Studio.
