Riding couple (1906) by Wassily Kandinsky. Giclee Print on Museum Quality Matte Paper. Premium Wood Framed Wall Art.

Wassily Kandinsky's "Riding Couple" (1906) stands as a testament to the artist's early exploration of color and form, a prelude to his later revolutionary abstract works. Kandinsky, a Russian painter and art theorist, is often credited with pioneering abstract art. Born in 1866 in Moscow, Kandinsky initially pursued law and economics before turning to art at the age of 30. His journey through the vibrant art scenes of Munich and Paris deeply influenced his development as an artist.

"Riding Couple" belongs to Kandinsky's Munich period, where he began to break away from traditional representation. The painting depicts a man and woman on horseback, set against a vivid and dreamlike landscape. This work exemplifies Kandinsky's early fascination with color as a means of expression, drawing from the Symbolist movement and Russian folklore. The brushwork is fluid and dynamic, capturing a sense of movement and emotion.

Kandinsky's philosophical approach was deeply rooted in the idea of art as a spiritual endeavor. He believed that color and form could convey profound emotions and transcend the material world. In "Riding Couple," the juxtaposition of the riders against the swirling background suggests a journey not just through space, but through a realm of inner experience and emotion.

The piece is significant as it marks Kandinsky's transition towards abstraction, a path that would lead to his seminal contributions to modern art. "Riding Couple" is currently held in the collection of the Lenbachhaus in Munich, offering viewers a glimpse into the early stages of Kandinsky's visionary journey.
