This print features Hilma af Klint’s work from her groundbreaking series *The Ten Largest*. Created between 1907 and 1908, this set of vibrantly abstract pieces is considered a cornerstone of af Klint’s spiritual and artistic work. The series explores the human life cycle through bold shapes, layered symbolism, and luminous colors merging natural and mystical worlds. This print specifically highlights one of the ten pieces with its focus on dynamic geometry and the gradual merging of earthly and universal themes.
Hilma af Klint (1862–1944) was a Swedish artist and mystic regarded as a pioneer of abstract art, though her work gained global recognition decades after her death. Influenced by spiritualism and theosophy, af Klint believed her abstract compositions to be messages from higher planes of consciousness, transcending the physical world into metaphysical explorations of existence. *The Ten Largest* represents a visual articulation of her perception of life’s cycles: childhood, youth, adulthood, and old age. Her compositions were not just artistic expressions but deeply embedded with her profound spiritual beliefs, intending to bridge the material and spiritual realms through vibrant color, symbolic forms, and abstract language.
