More about this artwork
Piet Mondrian’s painting "Farm near Duivendrecht, c. 1916" captivates viewers with its harmonious interplay of nature and gentle human habitation. This remarkable work of art depicts a serene rural setting, where traditional Dutch houses with their characteristic gabled roofs nestle amidst a vivid entanglement of barren, yet strikingly expressive trees. The presence of reflection in the nearby water adds a dreamlike quality to the scene, as it mirrors the complex lattice of branches and the soft hues of the dwellings.The painting is remarkable for its color palette, which consists of subtle earth tones blended with shades of blue and soft pastels, evoking a calm, early morning or late afternoon. Mondrian's brushwork is fluid yet controlled, allowing each element to blend into a unified landscape that hints at the transition between seasons."Farm near Duivendrecht" is a testament to Mondrian's evolving artistic style before his pivotal shift to abstract geometric compositions.
