SONIA DELAUNAY (Gradizhsk, Russian Empire [present-day Ukraine], 1885 – Paris, France, 1979) Rythmes Ondulatoires Circa 1970 Handwoven Aubusson wool tapestry, woven by Pinton Frères, Felletin-Aubusson, France, after Sonia Delaunay’s original design. 165 × 225 cm 65 × 88 5/8 in. Signed “Sonia Delaunay” in the weave, lower left, and bearing the Pinton workshop monogram. Edition of six examples plus two artist’s proofs. Certificate Accompanied by a certificate from the Pinton workshops, Felletin-Aubusson, France. About the work Rythmes Ondulatoires is an important example of Sonia Delaunay’s exploration of colour, rhythm and movement translated into the medium of tapestry. The composition is structured through an intricate interplay of circles, semicircles, concentric arcs and intersecting geometric planes. Vivid fields of red, blue, green, yellow and orange are set against black, white and grey, generating a powerful sense of optical vibration and continuous movement across the woven surface. The composition reflects Delaunay’s lifelong investigation into simultaneous colour contrasts, developed from the early twentieth century onwards. Together with Robert Delaunay, she explored the capacity of juxtaposed colours and geometric forms to create rhythm, luminosity and movement. These principles became fundamental to her distinctive contribution to the development of abstraction. The Collection Société Générale similarly describes Delaunay’s work in terms of her investigations into light, the movement of colours and “simultaneous contrast,” through vivid geometric forms organised into rhythmic compositions. The tapestry also reflects Delaunay’s longstanding commitment to dissolving the traditional distinction between fine and applied arts. Throughout her career, her abstract vocabulary extended beyond painting into textiles, fashion, interior decoration and other forms of applied art. Her use of pure colour and simultaneous contrasts remained central across these different media. In Rythmes Ondulatoires, the translation of Delaunay’s composition into wool by the Pinton workshops, one of the leading modern tapestry manufacturers in the Aubusson tradition, gives physical substance and texture to her chromatic language. The concentric curves and repeated arcs create an almost musical rhythm, while the juxtaposition of geometric forms produces a composition that appears to expand and contract across the surface. References and comparable examples Another Rythmes Ondulatoires, dated 1970, is documented as a handwoven Aubusson wool tapestry in scholarly lecture material devoted to Robert and Sonia Delaunay. The Société Générale Art Collection also holds a work entitled Rythmes ondulatoires, measuring 167 × 225 cm, closely corresponding in dimensions and composition. The collection describes the work through its geometric lines and forms, interwoven vivid colours and characteristic rhythmic harmony. Another Pinton-woven Rythmes Ondulatoires was publicly presented by Galleria Antonio Verolino at ArtePadova in 2024, documenting the continued presence of this composition within the art market and exhibition context. Condition The tapestry is in very good overall condition, with strong and well-preserved colours. Restoration No restoration documented. Laboratory examination None undertaken.
