It's so pure and it's so perfectly composed, balanced, and abstracted.
It just works, this painting.
We're very excited to have this superb Mondrian painting coming up in a sale.
It's an absolutely quintessential example from the seminal period of Mondrian's creative output.
It's from 1927, The Composition with Red, Yellow and Blue.
And here you see Mondrian with his classic, purest, abstract style, using the simple black, greige, and the three primary colors—his favorite combination—to a wonderful effect.
We hardly ever see Mondrian at auction, and most of the major works are in the big international museums.
And here we have—coming from a private European collection—a kind of perfect, exquisite example.
This canvas is still in its original frame executed by Mondrian.
And it's coming to auction now in an excellent, original condition.
And it presents a real opportunity for colossal collectors to acquire a Mondrian, and that is very much a key, iconic work from the best of 20th century art.
