Condition
Very good condition. The sheet has been laid down on board by the artist and inscribed by his hand on the reverse. There are some scuff marks around the extreme periphery that have been caused by the frame. The color of the monogram is slightly faded, but the overall colors are fresh and in excellent condition.

The works Kandinsky painted while in Paris in the 1930s display the influence of Surrealism aesthetic on his art. Biomorphic forms populate these compositions, and their palette is typically defined by the sharp contrasts of light and dark seen in the work of Miró, Léger and Picasso during this era. Not to be overtaken by the influence of the Parisian avant-garde, Kandinsky held fast to his Bauhaus principles, emphasizing balance and the harmony of color and spatial relationships in these compositions. The present gouache, with its linear precision and calculated spatial construct, is a stunning example of how the artist now melded past training with contemporary aesthetic, creating a style that was truly his own. The present work is related to a glass painting from November 1936 entitled Formes en tension in the collection of the Musée National d'Art Moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris.
