Note: Piet Mondrian (1872-1944) was a Dutch painter and a pioneer of abstract art. Mondrian was in the midst of the wave of artistic transformation in the early 20th century and attempted to explore the essential order of the universe through art. He was deeply influenced by the "mathematics of form" theory of philosopher Sunmeckel, believing that art should transcend the appearance of reality and reveal "pure reality" through the purest geometric elements (straight lines, right angles) and colors (the three primary colors, black, white and gray). This painting was created in 1924 and embodies the ultimate pursuit of "harmony and balance". This striking oil painting on canvas by Pete Mondrian embodies his signature geometric abstraction style. Only use the three primary colors of red, yellow and blue, as well as the "non-colors" of black, white and gray. Red symbolizes the passion and vitality of life, yellow implies light and wisdom, and blue represents the depth and eternity of the universe. The three primary colors have no harmony at all and are applied in a flat manner to create a strong visual tension. Black, white and grey are like "void", harmonizing the color collision and achieving harmony in the picture through contrast. As a milestone in abstract art, it provided significant inspiration for later schools such as minimalism and abstract Expressionism, promoting the exploration of art from "reproducing reality" to "pure form".
