Jackson Pollock American Oil on Canvas

Updated September 8, 2026

Title: Untitled Drip Composition in Yellow, Green, and White Technique: Oil and enamel on canvas, according to the label affixed to the reverse Measures: 35 x 47 inches (88.9 x 119.4 cm) Year: 1950, according to the inscription and reverse label Condition: Good condition. The surface presents extensive layered pigment application with overlapping drips, pours, splatters, and linear passages throughout. Minor surface wear and handling marks consistent with age and display may be present. Areas of staining, discoloration, and pigment transfer are visible on the reverse. The canvas appears stable and display-ready, retaining its substantial texture, strong color contrasts, and overall visual impact. Provenance: From a private collection on the West Coast of the United States. Reportedly acquired from an American private collection specializing in Abstract Expressionism during the early 2000s. Details concerning the preceding collection are limited, and no supporting documentation accompanied the work upon consignment. This provenance reflects the history supplied when the artwork was received for cataloging. Visual Description: This large horizontal abstraction presents an energetic network of yellow, green, white, and black pigment layered across a dark ground. Broad pours intersect with thinner looping lines, scattered droplets, and irregular pools of color. The saturated yellow passages provide strong visual movement, while white and green elements create contrast and spatial depth against the nearly black background. The all-over arrangement eliminates a conventional focal point, encouraging continuous movement across the densely activated surface. Bears an inscription appearing to read “Jackson Pollock 50” near the lower right. Additional Information: A label referring to the Betty Parsons Gallery, 15 East 57th Street, New York, is affixed to the reverse. It appears to identify Jackson Pollock as the artist, provide title, medium, dimensional, and 1950 dating information. The label, inscription, date, and stylistic associations are reported solely for cataloging purposes and do not independently establish authenticity, authorship by Jackson Pollock, exhibition history, provenance, or a documented gallery transaction. This composition reflects stylistic elements commonly associated with major figures in modern and contemporary art.
