Etudes Bauhaus D 1929

Victor Vasarely's "Etudes Bauhaus D" (1929) is a prime example of geometric abstraction, a style that dominated the Bauhaus movement. This small-scale work, measuring only 23 x 23 cm, features a central square composed of a series of interlocking rectangles in muted shades of brown, yellow, and orange. The composition creates a sense of depth and optical illusion, drawing the viewer's eye inward towards the heart of the work. The deliberate simplicity of the design reflects the Bauhaus emphasis on functionality and clarity, making this piece a compelling example of early 20th-century geometric art.
