"The Ten Largest, No. 10, Old Age" is an abstract painting created by Hilma af Klint in 1907. This artwork, one of a series of ten large-scale paintings, exemplifies Klint's fascination with spiritualism, theosophy, and the exploration of abstract forms. The composition features a grid of colored squares, red, blue, yellow, and pink, centered on a white background, surrounded by intricate, swirling lines and symbolic imagery. This piece from the "The Ten Largest" series exemplifies the abstract, geometric style that Klint developed, prefiguring the abstract art movements of the early 20th century, such as Abstract Expressionism, despite remaining unknown for decades.
