Hilma af Klint - Group IX, SUW, The Swan, No.7 (1915)
Description
The Swan, No. 7 is a wonderful painting by the artist Hilma Af Klint. This motif is a classic that will never go out of style!
The swan that the series is named after is featured prominently in a number of the works. Here, we see the black and the white swans meeting at a point towards the center of the canvas. We see the dissolution of representational work into abstract form, and the theories and ideas that she’s working with are put forth using both manners. And so, we see the idea of duality both illustrated by representational imagery, like the meeting of these two swans, but we also see it in other canvases in the series where a single form is repeated, or is mirrored, in abstract ways across the canvas.
So, this horizon line that we see here occurs over and over again in the works from this series, breaking the canvas into two sections that are pulled together, whether they’re pulled together through forms taken from real life or imagined forms.
