Robert Delaunay

Robert Delaunay 1885 - 1941 Portrait de Madame Heim (Étude). 1926/27. Oil on canvas. Inscribed “ROBERT DELAUNAY” on the reverse of the stretcher, presumably by a hand other than the artist’s. 130 x 96.7 cm (51.1 x 38 in). In addition to the exhibition labels listed below, the reverse also bears a shipping label from the “Salon des Indépendants” in Paris (no date) and a label of the “Galerie Beyeler” in Basel. [AR]. • An outstanding portrait and arguably the central work in a series of about 20 portraits of Madame Heim. • The Synthesis Period: the iconic color wheel, light reflections, and perspective distortions combine a naturalistic portrait with Delaunay’s groundbreaking painting style. • Art meets fashion: Madame Heim, wife of fashion designer Jacques Heim, wears a scarf designed by Sonia Delaunay. • From the height of Delaunay’s portraiture phase (1920–1930): From Tristan Tzara to Jean Cocteau, he portrayed the Parisian avant-garde. • Other versions of the portrait are held in museum collections, including the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Centro de Arte Moderna Gulbenkian in Lisbon. • Impressive exhibition history.
