Faux Vitraux 1970

"Faux Vitraux" is a 1970 work by the American sculptor Alexander Calder (1898-1976), a key figure in the development of Abstract art. It depicts a geometric pattern of black lines on a white background, intersecting to form diamonds, some filled with primary colors, and a large black triangle dominating the lower right corner. This work reflects Calder’s interest in simplified forms and vibrant colors, often seen in his iconic mobiles.
