Dune Landscape 1911

"Dune Landscape," created in 1911 by Piet Mondrian, exemplifies the artist's early exploration of landscape painting. The work depicts a serene, vast expanse of sand dunes bathed in a blue and purple light. Mondrian's characteristic use of flat planes and bold lines can be seen in the simplified forms of the dunes, reflecting his growing interest in abstraction. "Dune Landscape" highlights Mondrian's shift from traditional Impressionism towards his signature style of geometric abstraction, which he would later fully develop in his iconic "Composition" series. It is currently housed in the Gemeentemuseum den Haag in the Netherlands.
