About the piece

Created in 1914, this vibrant oil painting is a quintessential example of Wassily Kandinsky’s move toward pure abstraction. The composition is a symphony of high-contrast colors and rhythmic lines, centered around the eponymous red stain that serves as a bold focal point amidst the energetic brushwork.
