Comment(s): Comparable compositions to our example, in oil, sell at auction for substantially more than our modest pre-sale estimates. Kline was one of the central figures in the New York Abstract Impressionist movement of the 1950s, along with William de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko. After considerable success in New York galleries throughout the 1950s, Kline died young, ten days before his 52nd birthday, from heart disease in New York City.
