Gentle Accent 1934 — Fine Art

Gentle Accent 1934 by Wassily Kandinsky places a small cluster of marks near the center of the sheet. The eye rests on a few coloured spots and moves slowly outward to the open space around them. A pale field keeps the shapes quiet.

The fine art print goes straight onto a nail. The frame in white or black gives the sheet a clear edge on the wall. The clean line of the frame sits close to the marks so the picture reads as one firm object.

It works on the stairwell wall where the light falls from above. From the bottom step you notice the soft spots and the empty paper around them.
