About Windows Open Simultaneously 1st Part, 3rd Motif

The artwork titled “Windows Open Simultaneously 1st Part, 3rd Motif” was created by Robert Delaunay in 1912. This abstract piece, which is part of the Orphism art movement, measures 57 by 123 centimeters and is currently housed in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City, New York, United States.

The artwork features an array of geometric forms, predominantly squares and triangles, overlain with a vibrant patchwork of colors. The composition is dynamic and non-representational, focusing on the interplay of light and color, which is characteristic of the Orphism movement. The positioning of the shapes creates a rhythmic pattern, suggesting a sense of movement and transformation. The palette includes a broad spectrum of hues such as greens, reds, yellows, and purples, with varying shades and intensities that contribute to the overall vitality and depth of the artwork. The piece evokes a sense of looking through a fragmented window where multiple perspectives and light effects converge simultaneously.
