Read the full product descriptionWassily Kandinsky’s Kallmünz—Light-Green Mountains (1903) is an intimate glimpse of the artist at a pivotal early moment, when he was beginning to treat landscape not only as a place but as a vessel for feeling. Painted during his time in Bavaria, the work centers on rolling, light-green hills and distant mountains distilled into luminous, simplified shapes. The palette—dominated by greens with notes of yellow and blue—builds an atmosphere that feels both sunlit and contemplative, a landscape understood through sensation as much as sight.
This listing offers a museum-quality fine art print of Kallmünz—Light-Green Mountains, produced on acid-free archival paper or artist’s cotton canvas for exceptional color fidelity and longevity. Choose from a range of sizes to suit your space, with optional framing to arrive ready to hang. The Unique Maps Co. can personalize your piece with custom sizing, margin options, and tasteful titling details to complement your decor.
Kandinsky (1866–1944) is celebrated as a pioneer of abstract art, yet in 1903 he was still refining the expressive language that would make him a defining figure of modernism. Rooted in the rich artistic climate around Munich, he explored how color and form could carry emotion independent of strict realism—a path that would later lead him to co-found Der Blaue Reiter and to transform 20th-century painting.
This particular landscape captures the modern turn away from academic perspective and toward subjective vision. Rather than transcribe topography with precision, Kandinsky reduces hills and outcroppings to rounded and geometric forms, letting the viewer sense elevation, distance, and light through color relationships and brushwork. It’s a quietly radical proposition: a landscape that resonates more like a memory or a mood than a map.
Look closely and you’ll see how the painting’s strokes animate the surface—textured, rhythmic, and deliberately visible. Greens shift from lime to olive while blues remain soft and airy, with earth tones anchoring the slopes. The color is non-literal yet persuasively natural, suffusing the scene with a fresh, early-morning clarity. This interplay of hue and gesture hints at the abstraction to come, making the work compelling both as a beautiful landscape and as a key stepping stone in Kandinsky’s evolution.
Kallmünz—Light-Green Mountains is an elegant addition to interiors that prize calm color palettes and organic forms—ideal for living rooms, studies, and serene bedrooms. It also makes a thoughtful gift for lovers of modern art, fans of Kandinsky, or travelers with fond memories of Bavaria. Consider it for Christmas, birthdays, Mother’s or Father’s Day, a housewarming, or for someone recently returned from a European adventure—an evocative keepsake that brings light and quiet energy to the wall.
If you're not sure what size to order, or you're looking for a custom order of some kind – a different size, a different colour, a special frame – then please contact me. I usually respond within a few minutes.
You can see an example of my fine art personalisation service in the fifth image. Zoom in and take a look. My personalised artwork is always very well received. Take a look at more examples of personalisation.
You can also choose to age your art print to make it look older. This is popular amongst my customers who want their artwork to look like an older, antique print. You can see an example of ageing in the sixth product image, or go ahead and check out lots of examples of other aged artwork.
The model in the listing images is holding the 18x24in (45x60cm) version of this art print.
I can print and frame this beautiful piece of art at sizes up to 3 metres (10ft). If you are looking for a size or framing option that isn't available online, please get in touch.
This artwork is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or you can buy it framed. My standard frames come in six colours (black, dark brown, dark grey, antique gold, oak and white), and custom framing is available for an additional charge. My frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.
This artwork is also available as a float framed canvas, sometimes known as a shadow gap framed canvas or canvas floater. The work is printed on artist's cotton canvas and then stretched over a handmade box frame. We then "float" the canvas inside a wooden frame, which is available in a range of colours (black, dark brown, oak, antique gold and white). This is a wonderful way to present an art print without glazing in front. See some examples of float framed canvas art and explore the differences between my different finishes.

Our standard frame is a gallery-style black ash hardwood frame, with a simple, modern look. It is approximately 20mm (0.8in) wide. You can also view some lovely customer photos of framed maps and art.
We use super-clear acrylic glazing, also known as Perspex or Acrylite, instead of traditional glass. It is lighter, safer, and has lower reflectivity, giving the artwork a clearer, cleaner appearance.
Six standard frame colours are available at no extra cost: black, dark brown, dark grey, oak, white, and antique gold. Custom framing and mounting/matting is also available for customers looking for something more specific.
Most maps, art prints, and illustrations are also available as a framed canvas. We use matte cotton canvas, stretch it over a sustainably sourced wooden box frame, and then float the piece within a wooden outer frame. The finished result is beautifully presented, with no glazing between you and the artwork.
All frames are supplied ready to hang, with either string or brackets fitted to the back. Very large frames will include heavy-duty hanging plates and/or a mounting baton. If you have any questions, please get in touch.
We can also supply old maps and artwork on canvas, foam board, cotton rag, and other materials.
If you would prefer to frame your map or artwork yourself, please read our size guide before ordering.
My maps are extremely high quality reproductions of original maps.
I source original, rare maps from libraries, auction houses and private collections around the world, restore them at my London workshop, and then use specialist giclée inks and printers to create beautiful maps that look even better than the original.
My maps are printed on acid-free archival matte (not glossy) paper that feels very high quality and almost like card. In technical terms the paper weight/thickness is 10mil/200gsm. It's perfect for framing.
I print with Epson ultrachrome giclée UV fade resistant pigment inks - some of the best inks you can find.
I can also make maps on canvas, cotton rag and other exotic materials.

If you're looking for the perfect anniversary or housewarming gift, I can personalise your map to make it truly unique. For example, I can add a short message, or highlight an important location, or add your family's coat of arms.

Map ageing
I have been asked hundreds of times over the years by customers if they could buy a map that looks even older.
Well, now you can, by selecting Aged before you add a map to your basket.
All the product photos you see on this page show the map in its Original form. This is what the map looks like today.
If you select Aged, I will age your map by hand, using a special and unique process developed through years of studying old maps, talking to researchers to understand the chemistry of aging paper, and of course... lots of practice!
If you're unsure, stick to the Original colour of the map. If you want something a bit darker and older looking, go for Aged.
If you are not happy with your order for any reason, contact me and I'll get it fixed ASAP, free of charge. Please see my returns and refund policy for more information.

I stand by my products and will always make sure you're 100% happy with what you receive.
