Really appreciate you guys doing this deep dive on a book that basically got lost in the pandemic. It’s nice to see the discussion of the work we did, which all of us were super proud of.

Only if he was willing to sell it to someone likely to hold it in a Swiss airport vault!

Ah the Guggenheim… 😌
I think the building was the better choice!

Not saying he paid that in 1964, mind you, just that that’s the equivalent value in 1964 dollars.

Quick inflation calculator puts the equivalent price at $917,000 in 1964 when Rothko moved into this studio. Not sure what his finances were at that point, but it seems like a lot, even for someone with his success.

Could Rothko even have afforded this?

Oh! Lol
