Artist: Piet Mondrian Created: 1930 Dimensions (cm): 59.5 × 59.5 Format: Oil and paper on canvas Location: Private Collection Composition II in Red Blue and Yellow is a 1930 painti ng by Piet Mondrian and a variation of Composition in Red Blue and Yellow from the precedent year. In the well-known work of abstraction, Mondrian focuses on the material properties of paint and its unique ability to express ideas using formal elements such as line and color. Thick, black brushwork defines the borders of the different geometric figures. Comparably, the black brushwork on the canvas is very minimal but it is masterfully applied to become one of the defining features of the work. Show more
