Pictures of the Week: March 1-7


Laborers work at an under-construction chemical factory in Huai'an, Jiangsu province, China, March 2.

When I first saw this photo of the chemical factory under construction in China, it took me a moment to realize what I was looking at. But I was struck by its graphic elements -- the grid of sharp lines accented with bright blue and yellow pieces of equipment.

The image is uncannily similar to the works of  the 20th century abstract painter Piet Mondrian -- in particular his painting, Composition with Red, Yellow and Blue, which is made up of a composition of primary colors in rectangles on a grid of black lines.
 
Take a look at all of this week's compelling Pictures of the Week and vote for your favorite.
