Discover the Masterpiece of Neoplasticism Art Movement

Composition with Red, Blue and Yellow is a 1930 painting by Piet Mondrian, a Dutch artist who was a leading figure in the Neo-Plasticism movement. This masterpiece is an excellent example of how Mondrian simplified visual compositions to vertical and horizontal lines, using primary colors and black lines to define the borders of colored rectangles.

The Evolution of Oil on Canvas

Oil paint was used by Europeans for painting statues and woodwork from at least the 12th century, but its common use for painted images began with Early Netherlandish painting in Northern Europe. By the height of the Renaissance, oil painting techniques had almost completely replaced the use of egg tempera paints for panel paintings in most of Europe. Composition with Red, Blue and Yellow is an excellent example of how Mondrian used oil on canvas to create a vibrant and textured work of art that has stood the test of time.

The Characteristics of Oil on Canvas

Oil paint is made by mixing pigments with a drying oil, such as linseed oil, poppy seed oil, walnut oil, or safflower oil. The choice of oil imparts a range of properties to the paint, such as the amount of yellowing or drying time. Oil paint can be thinned with turpentine or other solvents, and it can be applied in thin layers or thick impasto. It is known for its flexibility, rich color, and ability to create subtle gradations of tone and texture.

Notable Examples of Neoplasticism Art Movement

Composition with Red, Blue and Yellow is one of the most famous paintings by Piet Mondrian. This painting is a perfect example of how Mondrian used primary colors and black lines to create a visual composition that is both simple and complex at the same time.
