Abstract artist Kandinsky was an influential Russian painter and art theorist. Kandinsky’s analyses on interellation between forms and colors resulted not from random brush strokes but from the painter’s inner experience. This pioneer was celebrated as a true poet who could create an aesthetic experience that engaged the sight, sound, and emotions of the public without copying nature. His spiritual approach and artistic knowledge allowed him to explore the depth of human feelings.

The original masterpiece “Violett” featured on this pillow is a lithograph in red, yellow, blue and black from 1923.
