Sonia Delaunay was a French artist and designer of Ukrainian-Jewish descent, best known for co-founding the Orphism movement with her husband, Robert Delaunay. Her vibrant, geometric compositions extended beyond painting into textiles, fashion, and interior design. In 1913, she collaborated with poet Blaise Cendrars on La prose du Transsibérien et de la Petite Jehanne de France, a groundbreaking fusion of art and literature. Her textile designs influenced early 20th-century fashion, and in 1964, she became the first living female artist to have a retrospective at the Louvre. Her legacy continues to inspire modern artists and designers worldwide.
