What is Wassily Kandinsky's most famous painting called?
What Wassily Kandinsky's most famous painting is called is The Blue Rider or Der Blaue Reiter. The work inspired the name of a group of avant-garde artists in Munich, including Kandinsky, Paul Klee and Franz Marc, who explored spiritual concepts through their art as a response to the materialism of the time. Kandinsky created the painting in 1911, and today it is a part of a private collection. It depicts a figure in a blue cloak riding a white horse across a tree-lined landscape.
