Where I used to strive for movement and restlessness I now attempt to sense and express the complete total calm of objects and the surrounding air.
—Lyonel Feininger

Earlier this year on this blog, I showed a few paintings from American painter Lyonel Feininger (1871-1956). Every time I come across one of his pieces I am struck by the harmony and calmness they present. That perception– and the seeking of it– of the quietude of object and place is something I understand. Or, at least, aspire to understand.
