Piet Mondriaan

Portrait of an old man

This work on paper was previously for sale.

Provenance: Herkomst: particulier bezit USA.
Literature: vgl. Robert P. Welsh, 'Piet Mondrian. Catalogue Raisonné of the Naturalistic Works (until early 1911)', Blaricum 1998, pag. 201, cat.nr. A112 (met afb., gedateerd 1899?).

Before Mondrian made the abstract compositions with which he became famous, he drew and painted landscapes, figures, flowers and still-lifes in a naturalist style. Between 1895 and 1908, he gradually detached himself from exact pictorial representation and experimented with colour, composition and a simplifying of forms. This ultimately led to depicting nature in abstract vertical and horizontal lines and planes in primary colours.
