Mondrian's Techniques: Simplifying Nature into Pure Forms
In "Mill in Sunlight," Mondrian meticulously depicts the mill's structure, reducing it to its essential geometric shapes. He eliminates unnecessary details, focusing on the interplay of lines and planes. The result is a composition of simplified forms that convey the essence of the subject without imitating its exact appearance.
Beyond the Image: Symbolism and Meaning
The mill in the painting is more than just a physical structure; it represents Mondrian's quest for spiritual harmony. The sunlight illuminating the mill symbolizes the transformative power of abstraction, a concept that would become central to his artistic philosophy.
Artistic Context: The Origins of Neoplasticism
"Mill in Sunlight" marks a pivotal moment in Mondrian's artistic evolution. It showcases his transition from naturalistic depictions towards a more abstract and geometric style. This painting laid the groundwork for Neoplasticism, the artistic movement he later co-founded, which emphasized the use of primary colors and geometric forms.
