About the piece
Painted in 1918 by Alexej von Jawlensky, this 'Abstract Head' is a quintessential example of the artist's late career focus on mystical and meditative portraits. Through a harmonious arrangement of peach, pale blue, and soft yellow, Jawlensky uses strong geometric lines to evoke a sense of spiritual repose and structured harmony.
