Hilma af Klint Blue Abstract Art Print | The Ten Largest No. 1 Childhood

Painted in 1907, two years before Kandinsky's first abstract work, The Ten Largest was Hilma af Klint's attempt to chart a human life across ten enormous canvases. This is Childhood — pale flowering forms scattered across a deep, restless blue, orange script looping like handwriting across the lower half, and rows of small suns waiting along the bottom edge.

She asked that these paintings not be shown until twenty years after her death. She believed the world wouldn't understand them yet, and she was probably right.

What makes it such a good print is the colour: a soft, chalky blue that reads as calm rather than cold, lifted by dusty pink, cream and warm ochre. It holds a wall without shouting, and works just as well in a bedroom as it does in a hallway or above a dining table.
