No. 10 is a painting by the American painter Mark Rothko from 1958.
The painting, which was auctioned at Christie's on May 13, 2015, fetched 81.92 million dollars, almost twice its estimated price, thus continuing the soaring prices achieved in auctions for Rothko's paintings. It narrowly missed the record result for Orange, Red, Yellow in 2012. A few days earlier, his picture Untitled, (Yellow and Blue) had brought in $ 46.5 million at Sotheby’s .
