About this artwork
Painted in 1927 in oil on canvas, this composition comes from Piet Mondrian's mature abstract style. Through the 1910s his work moved from Cubism towards a grid-based language, and he gave up depicting the natural world altogether. Here he keeps to horizontal and vertical rectangles, the three primary colours of red, yellow and blue, and black and white. Mondrian was a deeply thoughtful artist. He believed that, after the devastation of the First World War, abstract compositions like this could encourage a more harmonious society by speaking in a universal visual language.
On your wall: Its crisp geometry and primary colours suit modern interiors, from minimalist living rooms and studies to bright, open-plan spaces that benefit from a clear, graphic focal point.

About Piet Mondrian
Piet Mondrian was a Dutch painter and art theorist, born Pieter Cornelis Mondriaan and using the shortened name from 1911. He is regarded as one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. Beginning with figurative painting, he moved step by step towards abstraction, until his work was reduced to simple geometric elements.
