Robert Delaunay was a French artist who is associated with Orphism, (reminiscent of a link between pure abstraction and cubism). [6] His later works were more abstract, reminiscent of Paul Klee. His key contributions to abstract painting refer to his bold use of color, and a clear love of experimentation of both depth and tone.
