About the piece

Painted in 1914, 'In the Circle' captures Wassily Kandinsky at the height of his abstract exploration. Using a combination of watercolor, gouache, and ink, the artist creates a rhythmic dance of geometric and biomorphic shapes centered within a large circular boundary, exemplifying his theory of color and form as emotional resonance.
