Frantisek Kupka, Mme. Kupka Among Verticals

I saw this work yesterday at the MoMA and was really moved. I find it to be incredibly beautiful. The way that the face emerges from this forest of color and line is quite captivating. I love the abstract expressionist quality of the all-over painting, but with the really personal inclusion of the portrait hidden within the brush strokes.
