EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Cup with Saucer from 1923, now held in a private collection. Created during the height of abstract expressionism and the Blue Rider movement, this piece is a testament to Wassily Kandinsky's innovative vision and mastery of form. The cup and saucer are adorned with exquisite overglaze decoration, reflecting Kandinsky's fascination with color and pattern. The vibrant hues and intricate designs evoke a sense of energy and dynamism that is characteristic of Russian avant-garde art. As one of the pioneers of abstract art, Kandinsky believed in the power of non-representational forms to convey emotions directly to the viewer. This piece exemplifies his commitment to expressing inner experiences through visual language. Unfortunately, many works like this were labeled as "degenerate art" by the Nazi regime during their reign in Germany. These pieces were considered contrary to their ideals and were removed from public view under their campaign against entartete Kunst or degenerate art. Today, we can appreciate this stunning example without any commercial intentions but rather as an important part of fine art history. Its presence in a private collection allows us to admire its beauty up close while also recognizing its significance within the broader context of Russian avant-garde movements. This print serves as both a reminder of Kandinsky's groundbreaking contributions to modern art and an invitation for viewers to explore further into his fascinating body of work.
