The artwork is titled “Musée Des Arts Décoratifs” and was created by Ettore Sottsass in 1984. It belongs to the genres of architecture, sketch, and study, illustrating Sottsass’s distinctive approach to architectural design and conceptual visualization.
In the artwork, one observes an intricate architectural sketch, rendered with precision and detail. It features various interconnected structures, each characterized by robust geometric forms and an interplay of solid and transparent sections. The use of high-contrast black and white shading emphasizes the form and depth of the buildings, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. The arrangement of the components suggests a well-thought-out layout with multiple levels and bridges, reflecting a complex yet harmonious composition. The meticulous lines and dot patterns further contribute to the architectural study, highlighting Sottsass’s exceptional design proficiency and his innovative vision in the realm of decorative arts.
