This piece of art is incredibly famous, and almost instantly recognizable. In 2012, it was sold for 120 million dollars, which at the time, was the most a painting had ever been sold for. But I'm going to be honest here, if I had turned this into my art teacher, I would have gotten two slow blinks, and an Incomplete. It looks like something I would have angrily drawn in my teenage angst-ridden journal. I have to say, there is something incredibly evocative about it though, and it makes me wonder, why some things capture people's imagination, and other's don't.
Feel free to share your thoughts, and pieces of art that you have similar feelings about.

@RickiTarr I've never really understood why I like this Rothko so much
