I think that's probably a fair assesment of Rothko - I can't say I've seen any houses with Rothko prints in them mind. I adore him, but like so very many artists, you have to see the works in the right context to appreciate it. The Rothko room in the Tate Modern is one of my favourite spots in London.
On that note, I saw the Francis 'Franky' Bacon jobby at the Tate the other weekend. Never seen any of his stuff 'in the flesh'. Very, very disturbing, in a good way.
