EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Murnau, Houses in the Obermarkt" painted by Wassily Vasilyevich Kandinsky in 1908. The renowned Russian artist, considered one of the pioneers of abstract art, beautifully captures a serene summer landscape in Murnau, Bavaria. In this painting, Kandinsky skillfully uses vibrant colors and bold brushstrokes to depict the charming houses lining Obermarkt street. The warm sun casts its golden light upon the scene, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and joy. The artist's expressive style and use of colorfulness evoke a sense of poetry within nature itself. Kandinsky was part of a movement known as "The Blue Rider" which aimed to explore spiritual themes through art. This particular artwork exemplifies his mastery in capturing both external landscapes and inner emotions simultaneously. Through his unique blend of expressionism and fine art techniques, Kandinsky invites viewers to experience the beauty found within everyday scenes. Despite facing criticism during his lifetime for being part of what was labeled as "degenerate art" by Nazi Germany, Kandinsky's legacy continues to inspire generations with his innovative approach to painting. Today, this stunning oil on cardboard piece can be found among the esteemed Thyssen-Bornemisza Collections.
