Composition C No.III with Red, Yellow and Blue — Fine Art

Composition C No.III with Red, Yellow and Blue opens on flat colour blocks split by dark lines. The red, yellow and blue sit against a white ground, each shape kept separate. Piet Mondrian sets these basic tones side by side so each one reads clearly on its own.

The fine art print uses a matte paper surface, which keeps the red and yellow from reflecting light back at you. The black lines stay sharp and the white stays clean.

In a kitchen, the simple blocks sit above the counter where you notice the red while you wait for the kettle. From the doorway the shapes read as blocks first, then the colours step out. The kitchen wall stays uncluttered and the print keeps its own space.
