Colour Study | Wassily Kandinsky Stone Coaster

Colour Study: Squares with Concentric Circles (1913) by Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944) is a lively exploration of colour, shape, and visual rhythm that has become one of the artist’s best-known abstract works. Arranged in a loose grid of twelve squares, the composition features layers of hand-painted concentric circles in vivid combinations of red, yellow, blue, green, orange, and other saturated hues. Each square offers a different interplay of complementary and contrasting colours, creating a sense of movement and energy across the page. Kandinsky’s watercolor, gouache, and crayon technique gives the geometric forms a spontaneous, organic quality, with irregular edges and softly blending colours. This influential study reflects his interest in the emotional and expressive power of colour and form, making it a distinctive example of early abstract art and modernist design.
