The most recognized Piet Mondrian paintings are abstract paintings of colored squares, rectangles and thick black lines. Piet Mondrian was a famous abstract painter, born in the Netherlands in 1872. Piet did not start out painting squares and rectangles. He only started so during the tail end of the Impressionism movement.
The first Piet Mondrian paintings were consistent with the time period, taking a cue from the Post Impressionistic works of Van Gogh. Piet also took inspirations from Braque and Picasso, although he subsequently formed a very distinct style, all his own. There are several instances of a definite Post-impressionist and emotive use of color in his early paintings.
Through the provision of aesthetic beauty and breaking away from a representational form of painting, Piet Mondrian paintings were aimed at helping humanity. Starting as representational paintings, Piet Mondrian paintings evolved first into cubism, then into pure abstraction and non-representation. Eventually, the post-WWI war atmosphere of Paris allowed them to develop pure creative freedom.
Francis Bacon paintings were known for their raw graphic style and distorted images of people. Francis Bacon, one of the most famous 20th century British painters, was described as that man who paints those dreadful paintings.
Included among Francis Bacon paintings is an assemblage of meat carcasses and a mutilated, almost headless man beneath an umbrella. By 1948, Francis developed the technique of painting on the wrong side of the canvas or the unprimed side. He found the technique precisely attuned to his temperament that he continued its use till the end of his life.
Featured in many Francis Bacon paintings of the 1960s, such as Study for Head of George Dyer, was petty criminal George Dyer, with whom Francis fell in love with after he caught him breaking into his home. Triptych featured George as he was found slumped dead in a hotel bathroom.
