La vie entière23 September 1940
Sailing from Liverpool to New York

His last studio on East 59th Street
In the autumn of 1943 Mondrian moved into his second and final Manhattan studio, painted the walls the same off-white as his easel and made furniture from orange and apple crates; he said that the eight large compositions of coloured paper on the walls made it the best space he had ever lived in.
