In 1906, Vassily Kandinsky and his lover, the painter Gabriele Münter, spent some months along the Italian Riviera making sketches, paintings, and photographs of the landscape through which they traveled. In this painting, Kandinsky captured the coastal town of Rapallo-Bagni, laying down color with a palette knife in quick, expressionistic strokes.
