Alexej von Jawlensky

National Gallery of Art

This painting is an abstract composition of irregular shapes and vibrant colors. The different sections overlap and intersect in shades of green, blue, red, purple, and pink. A blue section in the top left has black dots, and two purple sections towards the bottom have white dots with yellow centers. In the upper center of the painting, there is a section of crossing black lines in a small grid. The paint has been applied unevenly in thick, scribbled lines, and some patches of the white canvas are visible.
