The Kandinsky’s painting "Winter Landscape" is one of the works in which the abstract art are shown in the full extent. The motive of thin black trunks is often used by Kandinsky in his landscapes. Bright coloring with dominant pink, yellow, blue and black is based on immediate visual impressions: the author seeks to convey various light effects in the snow lit by the setting sun; and the spatial depth of the landscape is emphasized with the composition.
