The “New York City 1” panel, which was finished in 1941, is one of the Constablong Museum’s most notable exhibits and was unveiled as part of a sizable retail show on Saturday.
But this week, the museum disclosed that the picture has been hanging on the wall there upside down for years.
“I saw that the painting was hanging in the opposite direction”, and “this raised suspicion”, according to France Press.
According to Mair Buser, the plate depicting the intersection of red, yellow, and blue lines with existent angles was displayed incorrectly “The Following Year” at the New York Museum of Art.
The painting was rearranged in the same manner before being delivered to the German Dusseldorf Museum in 1980.
The fact that “the picture has no signature,” as reported by France Press, may be the cause of the error, according to Mayer Boser.
Therefore, following Mondrian’s passing in 1944, the direction of its presentation was chosen based on “the name of the artist, which was etched on the back of the frame by the person responsible for the estate.”
one of the key figures in the Dutch aesthetic movement known as “Style,” distinguished by its simple colour palette and horizontal and vertical lines.
The painter departed for New York in 1940. His paintings’ linear networks were influenced by American skyscrapers and municipal planning.
His distinctive painting “Victory Boogie Woogie,” which is regarded as one of the most significant pieces of art of the twentieth century, has made him famous all over the world.
After 77 years, they found a Mondrian painting that had been hanging upside down.
