"Counter Composition XIII" (1925), by Dutch artist Theo van Doesburg, is a prime example of the De Stijl movement. This geometric abstract painting, currently in the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, features a vibrant composition of bold, primary colors. The artwork showcases Doesburg's commitment to pure form and color, eliminating any representational elements and focusing on the interplay of lines and shapes. The use of black, white, yellow, and red, arranged in a dynamic configuration, creates a visual tension and rhythm within the canvas, embodying the principles of De Stijl.
