Introducing
Hilma af Klint
Hilma af Klint was a Swedish artist and mystic, known for her groundbreaking abstract paintings created before such styles became mainstream. Her work, deeply spiritual, featured bold shapes, bright colors, and symbolism influenced by her interest in mysticism and theosophy. Klint’s abstract pieces were ahead of their time, making her a pioneer in modern art. Today, her works are celebrated for their innovative approach and continue to reach new audiences as art prints and posters that showcase her unique vision.
Hilma af Klint: The Forgotten Pioneer of Abstract Art
Born in 1862 in Sweden, Hilma af Klint was a classically trained artist who painted landscapes and portraits early in her career. However, she is best known for her large-scale abstract works that she began creating in 1906. These works were unlike anything her contemporaries were doing, filled with symbolic shapes and colors that expressed spiritual ideas. Her art, now widely recognized and available as art prints and posters, continues to captivate audiences with its originality.
One of her significant works: The Ten Largest nr 4 (1907).
Spirituality at the Core of Her Art
Klint was heavily influenced by her spiritual beliefs and was part of a group called “The Five,” who conducted seances and believed they could communicate with the spirit world. This connection to the mystical inspired her to create art that represented more than just physical reality. Her abstract paintings were filled with symbols, geometric shapes, and vibrant colors, representing complex ideas and emotions. Art prints and posters of her work bring this spiritual dimension into homes, inspiring thought and wonder.
A Vision Beyond Her Time
Hilma af Klint’s art was so ahead of her era that she knew it would not be understood during her lifetime. She even stipulated that her most abstract pieces should not be shown until at least 20 years after her death. Today, her foresight is admired, and her works are displayed and cherished as art prints and posters, highlighting her position as a true pioneer of abstract art.
One of her noted series: Buddha's Standpoint (1915)
Rediscovery and Global Recognition
For many years, Klint’s art was largely unknown, overshadowed by male contemporaries like Kandinsky. However, in recent decades, her contributions have gained global recognition, establishing her as a trailblazer in abstract art. Her works, with their unique mix of spirituality and innovation, are now popular as art prints and posters that appeal to those seeking meaningful and inspiring decor.
A Legacy Reclaimed
Hilma af Klint passed away in 1944, but her rediscovered works have sparked new conversations about the origins of abstract art. Her paintings continue to influence modern artists and are celebrated for their ahead-of-their-time vision. Today, art prints and posters of Klint’s works bring her groundbreaking spirit and bold designs into spaces around the world.

Very reliable company with quality products and great customer care. Posters are a little pricier compared to budget poster companies but worth every penny, the difference in quality still gives great value for money.
The whole process of ordering and receiving the poster was great. The choice of posters is enormous and it took us while to find the right one. We are very happy with our choice. The quality of the print is outstanding.
Beautiful art! Got one piece at a market in Berlin, then decided to get two more from the same collection to put on a big white wall in my bedroom. Shipping to Canada was smooth and faster than I expected.
My order was easily placed and quickly delivered, outside of Germany. The posters are of a fantastic quality. This was the second time I ordered from Kuriosis and both times were a very good experience
Good quality and very good service. I got it in about a week despite living in Japan. Thank you!
This is my second time ordering from here and the service and quality are second to none. I have ordered posters from other companies and their quality is no where near as good as Kuriosis. Also the postage is very quick.
Won’t go anywhere else now!!
