About the piece
Painted in 1908, 'The Blue Mountain' marks a pivotal moment in Wassily Kandinsky's journey toward abstraction. The composition is defined by its intense, non-naturalistic palette—a deep blue peak set against brilliant yellow and crimson foliage. The figures of the horsemen at the base suggest a fairy-tale or folk-inspired narrative, typical of the Blue Rider (Der Blaue Reiter) movement he would soon co-found.
