The artwork, titled “Word poetry, poetry of colors,” is a creation by Sonia Delaunay, a notable figure within the Orphism art movement. This piece belongs to the abstract genre, characterized by its vibrant color palette and geometric forms.
In the artwork, an array of squares and rectangles in red, blue, green, and grey interlock fluidly across the canvas. The juxtaposition of these vivid hues creates a dynamic sense of movement and rhythm. The thoughtful arrangement and repetition of shapes evoke a poetic cadence, resonating with its title. The overall composition encapsulates the essence of Orphism, emphasizing contrasting colors and abstract forms to convey a visual harmony that transcends representational boundaries.
