O obrazu
Easter and the Totem, painted in 1953 by Jackson Pollock, belongs to the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Totem-like forms stand at the sides of a canvas more than two metres tall. Pollock returned here to brushed, partly figurative imagery after pouring and dripping had ceased to dominate his work. Broad black passages and open areas of color suggest an influence from Henri Matisse.

Moves to the Sidney Janis Gallery
Pollock moved to the more commercial Sidney Janis Gallery; collectors' demand for his work was great, and under this pressure, along with personal frustration, his alcoholism deepened.
