Sonia Delaunay Abstract Lithograph
This is an original limited edition color lithograph by the renowned Orphist artist Sonia Delaunay. The work features a vibrant, rhythmic composition of geometric shapes, primarily concentric circles and arcing bands, characteristic of her 'Simultané' style which explores the interaction of contrasting colors. The palette is bold, incorporating primary and secondary hues including bright red, lime green, cerulean blue, yellow, and various shades of grey and black on a white background. The piece is hand-signed in pencil in the lower right margin as 'Sonia Delaunay' and is numbered '21/75' in the lower left margin, indicating a relatively small and desirable edition size. The paper shows a deckled edge, suggesting high-quality heavy-weight art paper. It is professionally housed in a modern gold-leaf finished wooden frame with an off-white mat. Regarding condition, there is visible moisture staining or foxing in the upper right quadrant of the paper margin within the frame, which may require professional restoration. The print itself appears to have strong color saturation with minimal fading, and the frame shows minor shelf wear. The work likely dates from the late 1960s to mid-1970s, a period when Delaunay revisited her early avant-garde motifs through printmaking.
