Ludwigskirche in Munich

Date: 1908
Medium: oil, cartoon

The painting presents a colourful scene that is probably inspired by a crowd scene or a festival gathering. Visible are figures clustered in an urban setting with archways in the background. The style of the painting suggests impressionist or expressionist methods with the use of strong colour strokes and strong contrasts, while the individual figures are not rendered in detail, giving the painting an abstract character.

Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944). Russian painter and art theorist. One of the most famous painters of the 20th century. He gained fame through his abstract paintings. After the First World War, he moved to Germany, where he worked until 1933, when he fled the Nazis to France. He lived in France until his death. Kandinsky worked a long way to get to his abstract painting technique (he was fascinated by symbolism and the psychology of colour). Kandinsky’s most famous works belong to the Bauhaus movement - an artistic movement of the 20s and 30s. It is characterized by sharp, geometric shapes (circles, wedges, triangles, etc.), clear colours and thoughtful treatment of surfaces. Perhaps the most famous work of this era is Yellow - red - blue (1925).
