Mark Rothko Loves the Reflecting Pool
RIP Mark Rothko. You would have loved how the hydrogen peroxide bleach is only turning the Reflecting Pool blue around the perimeter
An aerial view shows the Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C., with its water appearing blue around the edges. The joke references abstract expressionist painter Mark Rothko, whose paintings are known for large fields of layered color, and imagines him appreciating the pool’s accidental Rothko-like effect. It is sent as a dry, art-world reaction to an oddly beautiful or visually striking scene.
