This is an original edition of Derrière Le Miroir dedicated to Wassily Kandinsky's Parisian period from 1934 to 1944. Published by Maeght Éditeur in Paris, this edition beautifully captures Kandinsky's evolution towards geometric abstraction and surreal forms during his last years in France. The cover design reflects his signature use of bold shapes, contrasting colors, and a deep exploration of form and space. Derrière Le Miroir was a highly influential art magazine that featured some of the most important artists of the 20th century, and this edition showcases Kandinsky's mastery in abstract art. Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944) was a Russian painter and art theorist, often credited with pioneering abstract art. His work evolved from early representational forms to purely abstract compositions, exploring color, form, and spiritual expression through art. His influence remains profound in the development of modern abstract painting. Provenance: Published by Maeght Éditeur, Paris.
