About the piece

Painted in 1905, this work captures the coastline of Tunis during Wassily Kandinsky's early travels. Utilizing a heavy impasto technique with a palette knife, the artist emphasizes the tactile quality of the sand and sky, creating a grounding composition that bridges the gap between traditional landscape and emerging expressionism.
