Meditation; Black- Orange Glowing
1936
Painted while suffering from severe arthritis that eventually left him bedridden, this piece is part of Jawlensky's final 'Meditations' series. The bold black cross shape against the glowing orange background feels like a spiritual anchor, reflecting his deep interest in mysticism. These late works are essentially abstract landscapes of the soul, stripped down to their most essential, emotional forms.
