In 1913 Kandinsky executed major paintings, including Composition VI (St Petersburg, Hermitage) in March, Painting with White Border (New York, Guggenheim) in May and Composition VII (Moscow, Tret’yakov Gal.) in November. Many watercolours and oil sketches preceded Painting with White Border and Composition VII and reveal the gradual evolution of the apocalyptic imagery in each painting. Composition VII marks the culmination of themes of the Last Judgement, the Resurrection, the Deluge and the Garden of Love. The artist’s essays on Composition VI and Painting with White Border as well as his ‘Reminiscences’ were published in the Sturm monograph Kandinsky, 1901–1913 (Berlin, 1913).
