Description
Modern Masters Tapestries Gallery is thrilled to present Hélice (Helix), an extraordinary Aubusson tapestry in wool by the renowned artist Sonia Delaunay. Created circa 1970, this vibrant work measures 79 x 104 inches (200 x 265 cm) and exemplifies Delaunay’s signature use of bold colors and geometric abstraction. Inscribed “ÉX” on the reverse, the tapestry was masterfully crafted by the esteemed Atelier Pinton in Aubusson, France, a region celebrated for its rich tapestry-making tradition. Preserved in perfect condition, Hélice comes from a private French collection, further highlighting its exclusivity and historical significance. This exceptional piece stands as a testament to Delaunay’s innovative career, bridging the realms of fine art and textile design, and her enduring legacy as a pioneer of modernism.
