The Red Cloud (Mondrian)
The Red Cloud is an 1907 early painting by the Dutch artist Piet Mondrian. It was painted in 1907. [1] Mondrian completed the painting while staying near Oele, in the east of the Netherlands. One art historian has noted that the "hard colour contrasts and charged, expressive brushwork" is part of Mondrian's evolution towards an abstract painter.[2]
