Composition

Niederländische Grafik 1730–1914, 1914/1915

The image displays an array of bold lines and jagged shapes forming an abstract composition. Black lines create partitions filled with rich colors resembling stained glass sections. The colors - red, green, yellow, and blue - form shapes that may suggest a landscape with a river, hills, and a dynamic sky. The composition resembles a puzzle with irregular pieces, encouraging viewers to find familiar objects within the abstraction.
