Broadway Boogie Woogie — Fine Art

Broadway Boogie Woogie shows blocks of pale yellow and red set against white, with small black lines crossing the page. Piet Mondrian breaks the scene into many little squares that step across the sheet. Some squares group close together, then the eye moves over a wider gap.

The fine art print goes straight onto a nail. The frame finish can follow the room. A light frame on a dark wall lets the white parts sit forward, and a dark frame on a pale wall gives weight to the coloured blocks.

On a kitchen wall above the counter, the bright yellow blocks catch the morning light first, and the black lines read as a steady grid. From the table you notice the repeated squares, and the picture feels like a busy street seen from across the room.
