Market at Minho 1915

"Market at Minho" (1915) by Sonia Delaunay is a vibrant and colorful example of Orphism, a style of abstract art that emerged in the early 20th century. Delaunay, known for her innovative use of color, captures the bustling energy of a marketplace through bold geometric shapes and bright hues. The composition is dynamic, with overlapping circles, squares, and other forms creating a sense of movement and depth. The work reflects Delaunay's interest in the interplay of light and color, as seen in the radiant colors and the use of contrasting values.
