Piet Mondrian completed this evening landscape showing Dutch scenery at dusk. The horizontal bands of land and sky hint at the geometric abstraction he would later develop. Soft colors capture the fading light.
This transitional work shows Mondrian moving toward abstraction. It hangs at the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague.

About Evening landscape
In his early career, before developing his famous abstract style, Mondrian painted Dutch scenery Piet Mondrian created it as part of the Dutch artistic tradition.
The Gemeentemuseum in The Hague displays this landscape.
Mondrian's early landscapes show horizontal bands of land and sky that gradually simplified into pure horizontal and vertical lines. His artistic evolution from nature to abstraction spanned two decades.
