    Happy birthday to Mark Rothko!
Fun fact: Rothko’s No. 14, 1960 is absolutely THE most photographed piece in our permanent collection. In this screen shot of a Google image search for “SFMOMA + Rothko,” it’s interesting to see how the orange and blue hues vary from image to image.
Have you taken a photo of this marvelous work (or other paintings by Rothko)? If so, photo reply w/ it!
