The dull blade

Date: 1929
Medium: oil on board

The painting is an abstract composition reminiscent of a landscape. We have two large black triangles that look like mountains. In the upper right corner there is a pink circular form that resembles the sun or the moon. In the foreground we see a chalky white object, perhaps a house or other structure, with horizontal stripes. The scene has a surreal feel with simple geometric shapes and a limited color palette.

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).
