Black Lines by Wassily Kandinsky

The period from 1910 to 1914 is considered the peak of the artistic achievement of Wassily Kandinsky and this painting from 1913 is a fine example of his art at the time. It is one of the first of the artist’s truly abstract paintings.

Wassily Kandinsky (1866 – 1944) was a Russian artist who is considered the Father of Abstract Art, painting some of the earliest works in the genre. Art was deeply spiritual for Kandinsky and music was integral to many of his works. He was inspired by colour and believed he could convey emotions through it. Kandinsky was one of the most influential painters of the twentieth century.

A great image for framing behind glass, or block mounting on canvas to create a focal point and conversation piece in any art lover's home.
