"Moscow. Zubovskaya Square. Study." by Wassily Kandinsky is a perfect demonstration of his early step into Post-impressionism. The painting centers around a bustling city square, captured in dynamic shades and forms, invoking the style of a Cityscape. Kandinsky employed the medium of Oil on Canvas to portray a unique perception of his surroundings, symbolic of the developing abstract art. Despite not yet fully evolved into abstraction, his innovative techniques and exacting detail are evident in this magnificent work.
