"In 1925 Zwart produced for his own amusement a number of purely abstract compositions, which, like many of his advertisements, were composed on location at the printer. One, based on diagonals, clearly shows the Lissitzky influence. The use of color overprinting will later become a distinguishing ingredient in his work. These compositions reflect the same approach as the advertisiments, but not being bound to texts, they move a step further into abstraction" (Purvis, p.69); "In zijn vrije uren in Parijs houdt Piet Zwart zich bovendien bezig met enkele abstracte typografische composities, vrije werken die de invloed van Lissitzky en Mondriaan verraden (...). De studie, Hommage à une jeune fille uit 1925, zou geïnspireerd zijn op een kortstondige flirt in Parijs (...). Een vervolg krijgen deze beeldende expressies echter niet. 'Vrije composities', zo erkent Zwart later, 'lagen niet in mijn lijn; ik kon ze (...) immers zelf niet zetten en drukken; vrij experimenteren met zetmateriaal lag buiten mijn bereik'." (Brentjens p.156). SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE
