This work showcases the artist's exploration of pure form and colour.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTheo van Doesburg, born Christiaan Emil Marie Küpper, was a Dutch artist, architect, and theorist. He is best known as a founder and leading figure of De Stijl, a Dutch artistic movement that advocated pure abstraction and universality by a reduction to the essentials of form and colour; he co-founded the movement's journal, *De Stijl*, in 1917. *Counter-Composition VII* exemplifies De Stijl's core principles. The canvas is rotated 45 degrees, presenting a diamond shape rather than a square. The composition consists of geometric forms, primarily squares and rectangles, rendered in a limited palette of primary colours: red, yellow, and blue, along with black, white, and grey. These elements are arranged asymmetrically, creating a dynamic tension within the composition. The black lines define the boundaries of the coloured planes, further emphasising the geometric structure. The overall effect is one of balance and harmony, achieved through the careful arrangement of simple forms and colours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/naakte-vrouw-nude-woman-meijer-bleekrode\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eNaakte vrouw (Nude Woman) - Meijer Bleekrode — Meijer Bleekrode\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/le-couple-au-village-gustave-de-smet\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eLe couple au village - Gustave de Smet — Gustave De Smet\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Theo van Doesburg","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57801864446287,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57801903735119,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57801903767887,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Counter-Composition-VII_Poster_CompositorV1_1779969244038.jpg?v=1779969488","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/counter-composition-vii-theo-van-doesburg-1","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
