Among the earliest of all abstract prints, executed by Kandinsky in 1911 for Klänge (published in 1913).

This is a proof before the edition of 1200 printed in 1938 for XXe Siècle. Unlike most of the edition, it was never bound and thus has full margins.

Printed on very good wove paper.

In perfect condition.

NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE REPRODUCTION PRINTED (also for XXe siècle) IN 1958-59, WHICH WAS NOT PRINTED FROM THE ORIGINAL BLOCK.

The Artist

Wassily Kandinsky

Russian painter and art theorist Wassily Kandinsky is credited as having painted one of the first recognised purely abstract pieces of art. He turned to abstract work after an extended period of development and intense thought based on his artistic experiences. He was totally devoted to an idea of inner beauty as a central focus of his art. Kandinsky was born in Moscow and grew up in Odessa, where he studied at Grekov Odessa Art school.
