Descripción
A minimalist watercolour study by Hilma af Klint, featuring a central orange square and the Swedish word 'Framåt', representing the artist's spiritual and esoteric explorations.
This work belongs to the Parcifal series, a collection created by Hilma af Klint between 1916 and 1917. The series explores the spiritual journey of the individual, drawing upon esoteric traditions and the artist's own investigations into theosophy and anthroposophy. The composition is stark and minimal, featuring a single, hand-painted orange square set against a neutral, off-white background. Below the square, the Swedish word 'Framåt' (Forwards) is inscribed in a traditional, gothic-style typeface.
The simplicity of the form reflects af Klint's desire to represent metaphysical concepts through geometric reduction. Unlike many of her contemporaries who moved toward abstraction through the lens of pure aesthetic theory, af Klint viewed her work as a medium for communicating hidden truths about the physical and spiritual planes. The application of the watercolour is visible, showing the texture of the brushstrokes and the variations in pigment density, which provides a tactile quality to the otherwise flat, symbolic form.
Af Klint produced this series during a period of intense personal and artistic development. She often worked in isolation, creating these pieces as part of a larger, private project intended for a future audience. The inclusion of text within the visual field is a recurring device in her work, bridging the gap between linguistic meaning and visual representation. This print captures the essence of her early twentieth-century experiments, offering a clear view of her approach to colour and form as tools for spiritual inquiry. The work remains a significant example of early European abstraction, predating many of the more widely recognised movements of the era.

Artist Biography
Hilma Af Klint
Hilma af Klint was painting abstract art in 1906. Kandinsky's first abstract works are generally dated to 1910 or 1911. Malevich and Mondrian came later still. She predated them all by years, and nobody knew, because she stipulated that her work should not be shown until twenty years after her death.
She was born in 1862 into a naval family in Stockholm. She showed early ability in both mathematics and botany, studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, graduated with honours in 1887, and established herself as a conventional painter of landscapes and portraits. She also worked as a scientific illustrator, producing botanical drawings of fungi for a book that was never published. In 1919 and 1920 she drew flowers almost daily, creating jewel-toned watercolours with the precision of a naturalist who knew when each species bloomed.
The abstract work came from a different source. She attended her first seance at seventeen. In 1896 she formed a group called De Fem (The Five) with four other women: Anna Cassel, Cornelia Cederberg, Sigrid Hedman, and Mathilda Nilsson. They contacted what they believed to be spirit guides from another dimension and kept meticulous notes. In 1906, aged forty-four, she received instructions during a seance to create paintings for a Temple. She never understood where or what this Temple was, but she began.
The Paintings for the Temple series, 193 works made between 1906 and 1915, includes compositions that are completely abstract. She used a systematic colour symbolism: blue for femininity or spirituality, yellow for masculinity or intellect. Spirals, circles, and intersecting lines represented spiritual forces or natural processes. Where Kandinsky's abstraction looked inward to the artist's own psychology, af Klint believed astral spirits were working through her hands.
She died in 1944. The embargo lifted in 1964, but the work was not shown publicly until 1986. In 2018, the Guggenheim mounted Hilma af Klint: Paintings for the Future. It drew over 600,000 visitors, the most attended exhibition in the museum's history. She left behind more than 1,200 paintings and thousands of pages of notes.
