Pouring 1916

"Pouring" (1916) by Robert Delaunay is a vibrant and abstract depiction of a still life. The work, characterized by bold colors and dynamic circular forms, showcases Delaunay's signature style, known as Orphism, which incorporates aspects of Cubism and Fauvism. The artwork features a collection of seemingly floating objects, including fruit, a pitcher, and a tablecloth, rendered with fragmented shapes and swirling lines against a background of vibrant yellow and green hues. This piece exemplifies Delaunay's fascination with color and light, creating a dynamic and visually arresting composition.
