Murnau with Church II, 1910 Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944)

We create our paintings with museum quality and covering the highest academic standards. Once we get your order, it will be entirely hand-painted with oil on canvas. All the materials we use are the highest level, being totally artist graded painting materials and linen canvas.

We will add 1.6" (4 cm) additional blank canvas all over the painting for stretching.

High quality and detailing in every inch are time consuming. The reproduction of Wassily Kandinsky also needs time to dry in order to be completely ready for shipping, as this is crucial to not be damaged during transportation.
Based on the size, level of detail and complexity we need 8-9 weeks to complete the process.

In case the delivery date needs to be extended in time, or we are overloaded with requests, there will be an email sent to you sharing the new timelines of production and delivery.

TOPofART wants to remind you to keep patient, in order to get you the highest quality, being our mission to fulfill your expectations.

We not stretch and frame our oil paintings due to several reasons:
Painting reproduction is a high quality expensive product, which we cannot risk to damage by sending it being stretched.
Also, there are postal restrictions, regarding the size of the shipment.
Additionally, due to the dimensions of the stretched canvas, the shipment price may exceed the price of the product itself.

You can stretch and frame your painting in your local frame-shop.

Once the painting Murnau with Church II is ready and dry, it will be shipped to your delivery address. The canvas will be rolled-up in a secure postal tube.

We offer free shipping as well as paid express transportation services.

After adding your artwork to the shopping cart, you will be able to check the delivery price using the Estimate Shipping and Tax tool.

The paintings we create are only of museum quality. Our academy graduated artists will never allow a compromise in the quality and detail of the ordered painting. TOPofART do not work, and will never allow ourselves to work with low quality studios from the Far East. We are based in Europe, and quality is our highest priority.

Wassily Kandinsky's "Murnau with Church II" (1910) is a pulsating dance of color, form, and movement that whispers the future of abstraction while still holding onto the skeleton of representation. This is the world Kandinsky sees, not the one you do - fragmented, shattered, and reconstructed with emotion as its glue.

The scene is Murnau, a quaint village with a church spire piercing the sky - yet it hardly feels quaint. Look closer. The angular rooftops barely hold themselves together, tilting, as if drunk on color. The church spire, still recognizable, leans into the composition, almost as if it’s about to join the mountains in a symphony of chaos. Greens, blues, and reds carve out the landscape in aggressive, almost violent blocks. The sky? Not so much a sky as a suggestion of one - streaks of blood-red, blues, and patches of creamy white seem to slice through the atmosphere.

The colors aren’t just chosen - they’re orchestrated. Kandinsky wasn’t just painting objects; he was painting sounds. The aggressive primary colors seem to hum, vibrate, almost shout at you. The reds clash with the greens; the blues fight the yellows, and that conflict is the soul of this piece. It’s not peaceful. It's alive, electric, and slightly menacing.

Compositionally, it’s both structured and chaotic. You’re grounded by the looming presence of the church spire, but the fragmented houses and jagged shapes lead your eyes in every possible direction. There’s no calm focal point - it’s all movement, all tension. This isn’t a painting to relax to. It’s a painting to get lost in, to be unsettled by, and ultimately to realize that reality, for Kandinsky, is something far more flexible than you’ve ever imagined.
