> He split light into motion. Delaunay turned the Eiffel Tower into rhythmic colour and made the canvas pulse like a prism—Orphism, they called it, a geometry that sang.

## Bio

Robert Delaunay was born 12 April 1885 in France and found his place in the School of Paris. With his wife Sonia and a handful of others, he co-founded Orphism around 1912, an art movement built on strong colour and geometric shapes that broke from the monochrome severity of early Cubism. His approach wasn't about fracturing form alone—it was about making colour structural, pushing depth and tone until they vibrated. As the years passed his work grew more abstract, the experiments bolder, the hues unrepentant. He died 25 October 1941, leaving behind canvases that still hum.
