About
Kupka combines verticals and diagonals in this painting to create a sense of strength and tension respectively like a muscle held tautly. This piece is part of a series of similar works by Kupka called Vertical and Diagonal Planes likely inspired by the architecture of the Gothic cathedrals in Paris. The use of vibrant blues and reds is reminiscent of the stained glass windows often seen in these grand places of worship. Kupka’s own spirituality was much more focused around mysticism, however, the majesty of the grand Gothic cathedrals transcends religion.

Custom Framing
We use the highest quality wood in our modern shop to create custom frames, frame your print with precision-cut acid-free mat board, and mount it behind a UV-blocking semi-gloss plexiglass to protect your art from the sun, dust, pollution, heat, and humidity. Then we add finishing touches like a wall hanging mount, wall friendly bumpers and a protective backing.
