Celebrate Piet Mondrian's 152nd birthday with us today! Despite being most well-known for his cubist period and his fascination with four-sided figures in primary colors, his earlier works were much more conventional. Don't get us wrong — we love his abstract works, but this painting of 'A Farm Building' is far from square!

Piet Mondrain (b. 7 March 1872, Netherlands) From 'Triangulated Farmhouse Facade with Polder in Blue' (c. 1900), we can see that the breadth of his creative work is so much more than his 'compositions' of primary-colored squares and black lines for which he is now most widely known. #fineartfunart #arttoknow #mondrain #postimpressionism #neoimpressionist
