In the early 1920s, after Kandinsky's return from Russia to Germany, his works acquired a characteristic geometric quality — more space appeared on the canvas, and spontaneity gave way to order. Fascinated by the educational process and theoretical work at the Bauhaus, the painter continued his research into the interaction and influence of the primary elements of the canvas: color and form.

Kandinsky brought his theoretical studies to life in Several Circles. By deliberately limiting himself to a single form — the circle — he focused all his attention on other aspects, such as color, mass, and their relative positions on the canvas, which together determine the composition. Moreover, unlike many of Kandinsky's abstract works, Several Circles carries no objective connotations; it is pure abstraction.
