Accent on Pink
Wassily Kandinsky · 1926
Why it's great
Circles and dots of different sizes sit on a diamond-shaped patch against a dark background, with a bit of pink as the accent. Kandinsky painted this in 1926 and wrote about how a single small color can change the mood of a whole picture.

Wassily Kandinsky was born in Moscow and trained as a lawyer before becoming a painter at age 30. He lived in Russia, Germany and later France. He is considered one of the first artists to paint truly abstract works, using color and shape like music. He died in Neuilly-sur-Seine, near Paris, in 1944.
