Detailed Description
Orphism is a style of painting that emerged in the early 20th century. The name Orphism was coined by the French critic Jean Cocteau in 1912 to describe the work of a group of artists who were influenced by the Symbolist movement. The Orphists were interested in creating a new kind of art that would be more expressive and spiritual than the realistic art of the time. They believed that art should be an expression of the soul, and that colors should be used to create emotions and moods. The Orphists were influenced by the work of the French painter Paul Cézanne, who had developed a new way of painting landscapes that emphasized the use of color and geometric forms. The Orphists also admired the work of the Italian painter Giorgio de Chirico, who had created a series of enigmatic paintings featuring empty streets and strange, looming buildings. The most famous Orphist painters include Robert Delaunay, Sonia Delaunay, and Fernand Léger. The Orphist style was also adopted by a number of other artists, including Pablo Picasso and Piet Mondrian.
