Originally associated with Orphic Cubism, a style of his own invention which focused more on movement, light and rhythm than on the particular objects depicted on canvas, the influential French painter Robert Delaunay (1885-1941) abandoned representation in 1911 when he joined Wassily Kandinsky's Munich-based Blaue Reiter (Blue Rider) group, joining forces with such artists as Franz Marc, Albert Bloch and Paul Klee. The lyricism of Delaunay's color increased from 1912 to 1914, keeping pace with the accelerated perceptual and technical developments of the time.

Published to accompany an exhibition which moved from the Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin to the Guggenheim Museum, New York, in February 1998, this is a study of a series of paintings and drawings of Paris between 1909 and 1914 which established Robert Delaunay as a major artist. Delaunay developed a new aesthetic of abstraction in his pursuit of "pure painting" by synthesizing the Impressionist tradition of series painting and the contemporary language of Cubism.
