The Red Tower - Robert Delaunay
Robert Delaunay's series of paintings The Eiffel Tower explores the orphic representation of the iconic Parisian monument. Each work in this series depicts the Tower from different angles and perspectives, using a varied and contrasting colour palette that conveys a sense of dynamism and energy.
In these paintings, Delaunay fragments the structure of the Eiffel Tower into a series of lines, circles and geometric shapes. He plays with bright colours and contrasts to reinforce the effect of movement and vitality. The compositions, although abstract, retain the recognisable silhouette of the monument. The "Eiffel Tower" series is a perfect example of Delaunay's orphic vision, where abstraction, colour and geometric shapes are used to express the energy and movement inherent in the subject matter.
