The artwork under discussion is titled “Sonia Delaunay,” created by Miriam Schapiro in 1992. It belongs to the art movements of Feminist Art and Naïve Art (Primitivism), and is classified within the portrait genre. This piece is part of the series called “Delaunay, Goncharova, Popova and Me.”
The artwork features a woman, presumably Sonia Delaunay, depicted in a stylized manner characteristic of Naïve Art. The figure stands against an abstract, vividly colored backdrop composed of geometric patterns and bold contrasting colors. Her attire is adorned with black and white patterned designs, adding a dynamic visual texture to the composition. The use of primary hues in the background accentuates the central figure, creating a striking visual impact. The overall aesthetic reflects a blend of modernist influences and a celebration of feminine creativity.
