Autoportrait(1905-1906), Robert Delaunay

About the Artwork

Allow me to introduce you to “Autoportrait” by Robert Delaunay. Painted during the winter of 1905-1906, this self-portrait reveals Delaunay’s bold departure from convention. At just twenty-one years old, he had already encountered the Fauves at the Salon d’Automne in 1905, which inspired his exploration of divisionism and the use of pure color. In this captivating piece, Delaunay’s unfinished bust stands out against a vivid and abstract background. His determined gaze pierces through the canvas, inviting viewers to contemplate the interplay of primary colors—opposed to the secondary colors of his face. The result is a prism-like effect that foreshadows his later masterpiece, “Landscape with Disc.” As a print, “Autoportrait” captures the essence of Delaunay’s artistic evolution, making it an intriguing addition to any collection. Hang it in your space, and let the vibrant hues and expressive brushstrokes evoke reflection and admiration.
