3700623 Spring Sun (Lentezon): Castle Ruin: Brederode, c.1909-10 (oil on masonite) by Mondrian, Piet (1872-1944); 63.5A--72.4 cm; Dallas Museum of Art, Texas, USA; (add.info.: A weblike network of tree branches reveals a distant glimpse of a deteriorating medieval castle. The free yet carefully nuanced quality of the brushwork exemplifies the artists early dedication to oil sketches made in nature and his interest in capturing the changing quality of light and atmosphere at different times of the day and year. Although Mondrian was still using a broken, almost pointillist touch at this point in his career, the fragmenting of the landscape forms in this work suggests a movement toward the cubist vocabulary that would dominate his work in the coming years.); Foundation for the Arts Collection, gift of the James H. and Lillian Clark Foundation; Dutch, out of copyright

Spring Sun (Lentezon) - Castle Ruin - Brederode, c. 1909-10
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Piet Mondrian that transports viewers to a serene and picturesque landscape. The artwork showcases the artist's early dedication to capturing the changing qualities of light and atmosphere in nature. In this particular piece, Mondrian expertly depicts a deteriorating medieval castle through a weblike network of bare tree branches. The fragmented forms hint at his future exploration of cubist vocabulary, which would come to define his later works. The brushwork in "Spring Sun (Lentezon)" exemplifies Mondrian's free yet nuanced approach, as he carefully portrays the play of sunlight on the ruins and surrounding trees. The vibrant colors used in this fauvist-inspired painting evoke the beauty and energy of springtime. As we gaze upon this stunning composition, we are transported into a world where history meets nature. The remains of the castle stand as silent witnesses to centuries past while being embraced by the ever-changing seasons. It is an invitation for us to reflect on our own connection with time and nature's enduring presence. This remarkable artwork can be found at the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA, where it continues to captivate visitors with its atmospheric charm.
