The artwork, titled “Landscape,” was created by Theo van Doesburg in the year 1916. Executed using oil on canvas, this piece belongs to the Cubism art movement. The artwork measures 31.5 x 26.5 cm and falls under the landscape genre.
The artwork showcases a distinct Cubist approach, characterized by fragmented forms and geometric abstraction. It primarily features a circular composition filled with overlapping and intersecting shapes in shades of green, gray, and dark tones. The interplay of light and shadow within these shapes creates an intricate, dynamic effect, embodying the essence of Cubism’s exploration of multiple perspectives. The dark border surrounding the circular central image accentuates the abstract elements, guiding the viewer’s focus towards the complex interplay within the core of the composition.
