Die Delphine; Ein absolutt, ungefährlicher Riesen=Vogel 1928

"Die Delphine; Ein absolutt, ungefährlicher Riesen=Vogel" (1928) is a work by Swiss artist Adolf Wölfli (1864-1930). Wölfli's work, created during his confinement in a psychiatric hospital, is characterized by its intricate, colorful, and often symbolic imagery. This drawing depicts a stylized bird within a series of concentric rings, a common motif in his art. The work is classified as Art Brut, a category of art created by self-taught artists outside of mainstream artistic conventions. Wölfli’s art is unique in its naive and fantastical quality, offering a glimpse into the creative world of an individual outside of traditional artistic boundaries.
