Composition with Red, Yellow, and Blue, 1927. Piet Mondrian (Dutch, 1872-1944). Oil on canvas; framed: x x cm (24 1/2 x 24 5/8 x 4 1/4 in.); unframed: x cm (19 1/2 x 19 1/2 in.). Piet Mondrian cofounded the De Stijl movement of art and design, which is characterized by simplified compositions, primary colors, and right angles that define spatial relationships. A devoted advocate of jazz, Mondrian frequently linked his works to music through their titles. He completed this canvas in Paris just before beginning his series based on the fox-trot.
