Description
The painting "Study for the Blue Apple Tree series" of 1908, created by Piet Mondrian, is registered within a crucial period in the evolution of the artist towards its most abstract and geometric style. Mondrian, known for his fundamental contribution to the development of abstract art and neoplasticism, explores in this work a seemingly naturalistic theme through his particular visual language.
In a first inspection of "study for the Blue Apple Tree series", you can see the formation of a landscape that presents a compositional structure in which organic shapes and a color palette that anticipate the principles of its subsequent work are intertwined. The blue tree, which gives name to painting, is not only a representative element of nature, but also symbolizes a search for the idealization and simplification of graphic elements on stage. Through the use of blue color, Mondrian establishes a connection between the object represented and an emotion that defies the conventional perception of trees in art.
The composition stands out not only for its simplicity, but also because of the way Mondrian manages to evoke a feeling of depth and three -dimensionality. Although the colors used are limited, the contrast between the darkest and clearest tones generates its own dynamism to the work. The shadows of the tree are hinted at, while the background has a subtle nuance that allows the blue tree to shine on the canvas.
A remarkable aspect of this work is the absence of human figure or characters, which allows the viewer to concentrate on the essence of the landscape and the relationship between the elements. Thus, Mondrian moves away from explicit narrative and directs attention to a visual resource that suggests a dialogue between abstraction and reality. In his search to find a balance between the visible and the intangible, the work becomes a precursor of his future experiments with the shape and color.
The influence of the movement of post -impressionist painting, and in particular of artists such as Vincent Van Gogh, is palpable in color management and brushstroke in "Study for the Blue Apple Tree series." However, lines can already be drawn towards its subsequent exploration of neoplasticism, where the extreme simplification of shapes and colors becomes the norm.
In summary, "Study for the Blue Apple Tree series" is a work that represents a turning point in the artistic trajectory of Piet Mondrian, where the first indications of its characteristic style begin to take shape. This painting is not only a study on the representation of a singular tree, but also refers to the exploration of coloring and composition in relation to the landscape. Although it is not found in the fullness of its neoplastic aesthetics, "study for the Blue Apple Tree series" In the visual world.
