I hate it when the presentation of a painting completely ruins it. Curators have a surprising lack of knowledge when it comes to what conditions some paintings were meant to be displayed in; my picture is the prime example. Rothko painted these with extremely low lighting in mind, so the figures would distort and move in the darkness. On the other hand, the Edvard Munch museum in Oslo has a perfect display of The Scream: completely solitary, at the end of a long dark room, with a single low-watt bulb over it.
