It states that Mondrian was a Dutch painter who developed his own abstract style called De Stijl using primary colors and lines to create rectangular shapes. Mondrian was influenced by cubist artists like Picasso and Braque and his work became increasingly abstract over time. He eventually moved to New York City where he lived until his death, often listening to jazz music while painting.
