About
In The creation of an earthly paradise Léon Hanssen presents the life and work of Piet Mondrian in the period 1919-1933. These were the years of his classic abstract painting style, characterized by black vertical and horizontal lines and square surfaces in primary colors or in black, white or gray. In addition to the biography of Mondrian, the book presents a striking picture of a turbulent period: the years between the end of the First World War and the seizure of power by Adolf Hitler in January 1933.
