Sonia Delaunay original signed watercolor painting of abstract cubist orphism composition, signed with initials. She was the first woman ever to be exhibited at the Louvre during her lifetime when the museum mounted an exhibition in 1964 of her works. Delaunay studied at the Academie de la Palette, where Ozenfant and Dunoyer de Segonzac were fellow students. Her early work was influenced by the Fauves; some of her pictures from this period have an expressionist edge that contrasts with the gaiety of her later work. Her first show was in 1908; she married Robert Delaunay in 1910. She did not exhibit her paintings again in any number until 1953, twelve years after her husband's death. Although she would not compete with her husband, Sonia painted throughout her life.Delaunay explored how contrasting colors created a sense of movement and simultaneity andwas a central figure in the Orphist movement. Her work, like Electric Prisms, is known for its use of vibrant, clashing colors to create a sense of rhythm and motion. She also applied these principles to various media, including textiles.
