About the piece

Created in 1903, 'Shore (Am Ufer)' is a masterful example of Wassily Kandinsky's early style, where he began exploring the expressive power of color and texture. The work features thick, rhythmic impasto that brings the sandy beach and shimmering water to life, offering a charming glimpse into coastal life during the European turn of the century.
