  14. it looks like the young Charles was exerting a major influence on the look of the '20s from a very young age: "About 1911 I had the idea of making for my son, who had just been born, a blanket composed of bits of fabric like those I had seen in the houses of Russian peasants. When it was finished, the arrangement of the pieces of material seemed to me to evoke cubist conceptions and we then tried to apply the same process to other objects and paintings." Sonia Delaunay I love Sonia Delaunay, particularly her patterns for fabrics - the preparatory paintings make great graphic abstracts.
  15. Very interesting, Durium! I never realised that he was the son of Robert and Sonia Delaunay, major figures in 20th century art, and favorites of mine: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Delaunay http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonia_Delaunay He was, of course, honored by John Lewis with "Delaunay's Dilemma".
