Unsigned original lithographic poster. Produced in 1962 by Galerie Maeght, this poster commemorates Kandinsky’s pioneering group, Der Blaue Reiter, which included Franz Marc, Paul Klee, Gabriele Münter, and August Macke.


Rather than literal imagery, the composition uses bold geometric shapes and dynamic colour contrasts to orchestrate a visual “chord,” a harmony of elements that resonates with Kandinsky’s idea of painting as a kind of music for the eye. This aesthetic philosophy, articulated in his seminal text On the Spiritual in Art, positioned abstraction not as formal experiment but as a means of expressing inner life and universal feeling.


As a lithograph, the poster preserves both the formal clarity of his motifs and the expressive intensity of his colour palette. It functions as an exhibition announcement and a historical document, highlighting Kandinsky’s lasting influence on abstraction and modern visual thought.

For collectors, its authenticity, connection to Galerie Maeght, and celebration of one of modern art’s foundational movements make it a significant and desirable example of 20th‑century graphic art.
