On January 2nd, 1911, Kandinsky and other members of the Neue Kunstlervereinigung Munchen, attended a concert featuring works by Arnold Schoenberg. This painting is reality in dissolution, but still present with the grand piano, audience shapes, yellow representing irrepressible vitality and colours and sound going together. This was the first painting that he made after the concert and the word impression referred to paintings that reproduced a direct expression of an internal nature. This picture is not the particular concert he heard, but his overall impression of the music performance however the central image of the painting is the black angular block representing the piano, so this particular concert is at the heart of the picture. It floats on a yellow sound. The listeners, shown as circles and arcs, are covered in the sound but at the same time are focusing on the piano. The music that so influenced Kandinsky was three piano pieces from 1909.. H: 110cm W: 130cm D: 4cm

The quality of this print is of the highest standard, please see photographs which actually pick up the cracking in the paint from the original. Condition is excellent. Please note that the full title is `The Fighting Temeraire Tugged to her Last Birth to be Broken-up, 1838` The original painting was produced in 1839. Turner`s elegy for the age of sail and British Oak embodied in seamen, man-of-war and ships of the line, also ushers in the steam age. Sold like other outdated war ships for the price of her timber, the Temeraire is towed to the breakers by a steam tug. Much later, Turner`s picture was described as his first, almost prophetic idea of smoke, soot, iron and steam. Turner called it his `darling` and refused to sell it. He intended it for the National Gallery which sits in Trafalgar Square named after the battle in which the Temeraire had served and to this day the painting remains in the collection of the National Gallery..

It has been professionally mounted and framed. Mondrian was born in Holland in 1872 and was determined to become a painter from a young age. He qualified with a teaching degree in 1892, but enrolled for painting lessons, before moving to Amsterdam and registering at the Rijksacademie. Mondrian became a member of the art society Kunstliefde "Art Lovers" in Utrecht, where his first paintings were exhibited in 1893. He experimented with many different styles including naturalistic, impressionist and painting many landscapes of his native country. In 1911 he moved to Paris and the influence of Cubism, as evidenced by Picasso and Braque, started to appear almost immediately in his work. He spent the duration of the First World War back in Holland and continued his journey towards abstraction. After the War had finished Mondrian returned to France. He then moved to London in 1938 but relocated to New York just two years later in 1940, where he remained until his death. Mondrian is well known for his contribution to the development of modern abstract art. He strove to portray an extreme formal purity through his combination of simplistic straight lines and bold primary colours. The Image: Mondrian spent the period 1914-1918 (World War I) back at his home in Holland and during this time, he decided to work on an abstract art form which was later classified as Neoplastic style. This work was depicted by lighter colours, simplified colour selection and forms that were balanced in their composition. This work is a result of Mondrian joining the abstraction-creation line which was open to new styles, new techniques and at this time Mondrian began to be fascinated with the idea of the line and dismantling the very definition of painting. He argued that drawing and draughtsmanship which were exemplified in the line, had always lain at the heart of painting from the Renaissance artists to the Impressionists to the Modernists and no one had ever thought to challenge that..
