Description

An artist both of her time and well ahead of it, Hilma af Klint was a rare original. Years before such Modernist pioneers as Piet Mondrian and Vasily Kandinsky dipped their brushes into abstraction, af Klint was breaking ground with colorful, energetic compositions that veered away from the figurative. Her group of paintings called The Ten Largest focuses on the stages of human life; No. 3, Youth, featured on this 1000-piece puzzle, is aswirl with botanical elements and painted words, as she attempted to reconcile art, science, and religion through her brilliant artwork.
