Creative Rationale

Over the high Andes of Bolivia and Peru, where the thin air at extreme altitude creates harsh, cold conditions despite the tropical latitude. The extremely low pressure (637.7 Pa) suggests this location is at severe altitude, while the frigid 5.2K temperature calls for Rothko's most contemplative, somber palette of deep ultramarines and blacks. The very high humidity creates an ethereal, glowing quality to these dark bands, while the gentle wind softly blurs their boundaries into breathing, meditative forms.
