Description from the seller
WASSILY KANDINSKY - (Moscow 1866 – Neuilly-sur-Seine 1944)
- Message intime, after the composition of 1925.
- Size of the image: 37.5 x 31 cm
Color aquatint on paper. Printed monogrammed and dated “K 25” within the image. Numbered 170/300 lower left. Published by Maeght Éditeur, Paris. Framed.
This lyrical geometric composition reflects the visual language of Kandinsky's mature Bauhaus period, in which dynamic lines, circles, and vibrant color planes are orchestrated into a harmonious abstract structure. Regarded as one of the pioneers of non-objective art, Kandinsky sought to express spiritual and emotional experiences through purely abstract forms and color relationships.
The present impression is a posthumous edition published by Maeght, Paris, after Kandinsky's 1925 composition. Such editions played an important role in making the artist's most celebrated abstract inventions accessible to a wider audience while preserving the integrity of the original design.
A striking example of Kandinsky's enduring contribution to the development of modern abstraction.
