Painting No. 48 | Marsden Hartley Postcard

Painting No. 48 (1913) by Marsden Hartley is an abstract composition that exemplifies the artist's mastery of colour and form. The piece features overlapping shapes in muted primary colours, creating a layered, textured effect. Hartley’s careful use of colour and geometry invites viewers to engage with the work on a visual and emotional level. The muted tones provide a sense of depth and complexity, highlighting the artist's shift toward abstraction during the early 20th century. This painting is a reflection of Hartley's unique approach to modernism, where he combines elements of both abstraction and expressionism to convey mood and meaning.
