A finales de la década de 1910, Kandinsky pintó varias composiciones con óvalos. Aunque todas ellas son totalmente abstractas, todavía se perciben asociaciones con ciertos objetos reales. Pequeñas cúpulas de iglesias, campos y barcos unen esa expresión musical del estado de ánimo del autor con estampas reales de la vida, que despertaban en él sentimientos y emociones.
