Thyssen-Bornemisza — Wassily Kandinsky

Artwork notes

A late example to compare with his earlier geometric arrangements.

Materials, marks and colour

Artist-wide context; individual works may differ.

Media and surface

Oil, watercolour and printmaking let him test the same forms at different scales.

Marks and structure

Early loose marks later coexist with carefully placed circles, diagonals and geometric shapes.

Palette and light

Colour can suggest tension or calm without describing a recognisable object.
