Story

A pale swan and a dark swan meet beak to beak, their long necks twisting together in a loop, set against a sky that turns from deep shadow above to soft light below. The piece is rendered in oil and dates from 1915. It comes from Hilma af Klint (1862–1944), a Swedish painter whose work belongs to abstract art.

Where it works
