The artwork, entitled “Robe Poème, L’Ange a Glissé…”, was created by Sonia Delaunay in 1922. It belongs to the Orphism and Dada art movements and is classified as a design genre. This piece is part of the “Dress-poems” series, a collaboration with Tristan Tzara.
The artwork showcases a vibrant assembly of abstract shapes and forms, characteristic of the Orphism movement which emphasizes pure abstraction and bright colors. The composition includes balanced and intuitively arranged colors, such as green, yellow, brown, and black, coupled with text integrated into the design. Elements of geometric lines and curvilinear forms converge to create an imaginative poetic abstract visual. The involved text, “L’Ange a Glissé DANS la MAINS maniant les fruits,” suggests a fusion of visual poetry with artistic design, embodying the synergistic spirit of Sonia Delaunay’s collaboration with poet Tristan Tzara. The design is marked by a harmonious interplay of colors and text, evincing a whimsical, avant-garde aesthetic.
