Evolution is an early painting by the Dutch artist Piet Mondrian.

The painting represents a mid-point in Mondrian's journey from realistic landscapes to radical abstraction.

Soon after Mondrian completed the painting, it was exhibited as part of the first Moderne Kunstring (Modern Art Circle) exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.

[1] The artwork is part of the collection of the Kunstmuseum, The Hague.

It was loaned to the museum from 1955 to 1971 and was finally acquired by the museum in 1971, as part of a significant bequest from Sal Slijper.
