Bring a touch of early modern art to your stitching collection with Lady in Moscow Cross Stitch Pattern by Wassily Kandinsky. Painted around 1912, this evocative composition captures a lone figure — the “lady” — walking through the streets of Moscow beneath a sky alive with movement and color. Though figurative, the work reveals Kandinsky’s signature shift toward abstraction: forms are simplified, outlines dissolve, and emotion takes precedence over realism.
Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944) was a Russian painter, art theorist, and one of the pioneers of abstract art. Early in his career, he explored the emotional power of color and form, inspired by music and spiritual experience. Lady in Moscow stands at the crossroads of his evolving style — blending the poetic observation of his Moscow surroundings with the expressive rhythm that would define his later works.
This museum-quality, full-coverage, fine art cross-stitch pattern allows you to bring the energy and emotion of Kandinsky’s early modern vision to life. The pattern includes regular and large-print charts, five finished size options, clear step-by-step instructions, and a floss amount conversion chart for easy preparation.
A striking project for lovers of fine art, modernism, and color-rich design, this pattern bridges the familiar and the abstract — a testament to Kandinsky’s genius for turning everyday moments into visual music.
