Book excerpt: The last, unfinished work of Piet Mondrian (1872-194), the Victory Boogie Woogie was acquired in 1998 by the Dutch government and is on permanent loan at the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag. This work is considered one of the highlights of abstract 20th-century art. It had not been investigated properly before. In 2006 a study was therefore initiated with two purposes, namely research into the genesis of the work while studying the current condition. Besides the painting itself, historical sources and the restoration history were taken into account. The purpose of this publication is to shed light on all aspects of this masterpiece, thus contributing to a better understanding of this art work and a better understanding of the artist.00.
