A classification of unquantized Yang--Mills fields is given according to their algebraic and differential properties. A method is used which is similar to the one employed by Petrov and Schell in their classification of the vacuum gravitational field. It is proved that there is no inherently nonlinear solution to a sourceless Yang--Mills field in a vacuum. (AIP)
