About this artwork
Painted in 1912, this work is catalogued as a cityscape, though Delaunay's treatment of the subject moves well beyond a literal view. The title points to windows opening at the same moment, an idea that suits a picture built from many viewpoints rather than one fixed scene. It is oil paint on canvas, and it now belongs to the Hamburger Kunsthalle. Delaunay was a French artist of the School of Paris who co-founded Orphism with Sonia Delaunay and others. That movement is known for strong colour and geometric shapes, and his work often shows a love of experimenting with depth and tone.
On your wall: Its modern, abstract character suits living rooms, studies and open-plan spaces where a lively focal point is welcome, especially against plain, quiet walls.

About Robert Delaunay
Robert Delaunay was a French artist associated with the School of Paris. Together with his wife, Sonia Delaunay, and others, he co-founded Orphism, a movement known for strong colour and geometric shapes. His work shows a bold handling of colour and a clear delight in experimenting with depth and tone, and his later paintings grew more abstract.
