About Composition 13

The artwork titled “Composition 13” was created by Sonia Delaunay around the year 1930. This piece is associated with the Orphism art movement and belongs to the genre of design.

The artwork features a striking use of geometric patterns and an interplay of colors predominantly in shades of red and black. The composition is divided into distinct sections that showcase different textures and linear elements. A checkerboard pattern occupies the upper left corner, while horizontal lines and brick-like motifs form the central segment. The lower right corner is characterized by a crisscross grid pattern, adding a dynamic contrast to the overall composition. The diagonal division of these sections creates a sense of movement and energy, embodying the principles of Orphism with its emphasis on color and abstraction.
