Wassily Kandinsky

1866–1944 · Russian–French · Oil on canvas

Wassily Kandinsky was one of the first painters to work in pure abstraction, using circles, lines and colour the way a composer uses sound.

Why it belongs in wool

His circles and lines are bold and clearly separated, so each one can be tufted at its own height. Rendered in wool, the composition takes on real depth.
