About Small worlds III

The artwork titled “Small Worlds III” was created by the distinguished artist Wassily Kandinsky in 1922, in Germany. Rendered in lithography on paper, this piece is a notable example of Abstract Art, measuring 27.7 by 23 centimeters. It belongs to the abstract genre and is currently housed at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, located in Edinburgh, United Kingdom.

The artwork presents a dynamic and vivid composition that encapsulates the essence of abstract expression. Various geometric shapes and lines intersect and overlap, creating a complex interplay of form and color. Kandinsky employs a bold color palette, with prominent hues of red, yellow, blue, and black, arranged in a seemingly chaotic yet harmonious manner. The piece is framed by a dark border, which contrasts starkly with the lighter, more vibrant interior features. The abstract forms and precise lines evoke a sense of movement and depth, inviting viewers to explore the intricacies within this compact yet profound composition.
