Happy Birthday Jackson #Pollock
Jan 28, 1912 - Aug 11, 1956

2 fun facts about this painting:
Originally made for Peggy Guggenheim for her entry way, it was too big, so Pollock just cut off the overlap. (The canvas measures 95 3/8 x 237 3/4 x 2 1/2 in!)

After it was donated to @uiowa, it was stored in an attic and discovered decades later covered in pigeon poo.
