Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944) (after) - "Composition X, 1939"

- Wassily Kandinsky (after). authorized offset on heavyweight smooth satin paper (300 gsm approx.). - Size: 60 x 80cm. - Signed in the plate. - Stamp on verso. - Condition: excellent. Never framed. Never exposed. - Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944) is regarded as one of the pioneers of abstract art. Trained initially in law and economics, he devoted himself fully to painting in his thirties, developing a style that broke away from figurative representation and sought to translate music, spirituality, and inner experience into visual form. His theories, published in works such as Concerning the Spiritual in Art (1911), were highly influential in shaping modernism and abstract painting in the 20th century. Kandinsky’s paintings are characterized by vibrant color, dynamic geometries, and an exploration of the emotional resonance of form. Over the course of his career, his style evolved from lyrical abstraction, full of organic shapes and expressive brushwork, to a more structured, geometric visual language during his years at the Bauhaus, and finally to a freer, more biomorphic phase in his late works. On the art market, Kandinsky’s paintings are among the most highly valued of modern masters. Major works have repeatedly achieved record prices at auction, with some selling for over $40 million, reflecting both their historical importance and the enduring demand from collectors and institutions worldwide. Works on paper, prints, and lithographs are also actively traded and provide a more accessible entry point for collectors. One of his final major works, Composition X (1939), represents the culmination of his lifelong exploration of abstract composition. Set against a dark, almost cosmic black background, the painting presents floating geometric and biomorphic forms in vivid reds, greens, yellows, and whites. The black ground conveys a sense of infinity, while the scattered shapes suggest a universal harmony in flux. It has been described as both a summation of his abstract language and a meditation on the end of life and the mysteries of existence. Composition X is often cited as one of his most powerful and enigmatic works, embodying the mature vision of an artist who revolutionized modern art.
