When asked about the 'grey and black' paintings, Rothko said, quite simply, that they were about death. They are desolate, empty images, but they also afford a richly ambiguous visual experience. Their landscape like qualities, with the black at the top — an Arctic wasteland under a vast and empty sky — is at the same time more deathlike.
