About the artwork
Tableau no. 2 / Composition no. V - 1914
Mondrian moves toward the autonomous grid
Piet Mondrian made Tableau no. 2 / Composition no. V in 1914. The oil on canvas belongs to the period when his paintings were moving away from recognizable subjects toward an independent language of line, plane, and color.
MoMA records the work as an oil painting measuring 54.8 by 85.3 cm and identifies it as part of the Sidney and Harriet Janis Collection, acquired in 1967.
The painting's public-domain source image is presented uncropped and unstretched inside a cream mat for a calm 4K Frame TV display.
