Artist: Wassily Kandinsky
A small oil on canvas board shows the Baltic coast at Binz on the island of Rügen at twilight. Kandinsky painted the shore and sea during his early years in Germany, before the abstract work for which he became known. The museum dates the painting between 1901 and 1905, while the catalogue raisonné gives 1901. This tour looks at how the landscape is built and what its twilight mood can tell us.

A small oil on canvas board from Kandinsky's early landscape work, showing a path through trees at Akhtyrka in Ukraine, made well before his move into abstraction. This docent-led visit stays close to what the institutional record establishes about the subject and dating.
Artist: Wassily Kandinsky
A long, low panorama of Russian folk life, painted by Kandinsky in 1904, in which a white horse and rider cross between a costumed crowd and a pink fortress wall crowned with onion domes. This short tour reads the picture's composition and colour as the means by which that folk subject is staged, staying close to what the supplied record supports.
Artist: Wassily Kandinsky
A short, vivid market square painted by Kandinsky around 1903, before abstraction claimed him. Broad white canopies, old-town facades, and a handful of shoppers give us a town going about its day.
Artist: Vassily Kandinsky
A gallery guide to Kandinsky's Impression V (Parc), a 1911 painting in which two horsemen, reduced to black lines, appear against a monumental red triangle. The work marks a step away from descriptive colour toward rhythm and cadence.
Artist: Wassily Kandinsky
A small 1902 landscape by Wassily Kandinsky shows the Kochel lake with a wooden pier, dark mountains and a yellow boat. This visit looks at what can be seen in the painting and keeps the modest evidence for its subject and meaning clearly separated from interpretation.
