Doves No. 2 1915

Hilma af Klint’s 1915 painting *Doves No. 2* is a striking example of abstract art, characterized by its geometric shapes and vibrant colors. The painting’s central motif is a white heart shape, enclosed by a larger oval divided into sections of pink and purple. A spectrum of colors radiates from the bottom of the oval, anchored by a black background. Klint, a Swedish artist, was a pioneer of abstract art and her works are often seen as prefiguring the Abstract Expressionist movement. *Doves No. 2* embodies her interest in spirituality and the symbolism of geometric forms.
