Story

A circular canvas unfolds into four quadrants, each holding concentric rings, organic shapes, and geometric patterns rendered in blue, yellow, black, and white, giving the composition a sense of balanced, radiating structure. Hilma af Klint made this oil painting in 1907. Af Klint, a Swedish painter (1862–1944), worked within abstract art, and the piece is held through Stiftelsen Hilma af Klint Verk at the Hilma af Klint Foundation in Stockholm.
