New York: Harry N. Abrams, Inc., 1967. Yellow cloth with Delaunay's facsimile signature embossed in black, in a colorful pictorial dust jacket. 116 pp., 87 b/w illustrations and 16 tipped-in color plates. The text traces "Robert Delaunay's Life and Work from the Beginning to Orphism" (1914) by Gustav Vriesen, followed by an essay on "Delaunay"s Position in History" by Max Imdahl; with Robert Delaunay's "La Lumière" (in French with English translation); list of illustrations, biographical timeline, bibliography. Translated from the original German. From the jacket flap: "The first full-scale study in English devoted to the pioneer French abstractionist Robert Delaunay (1885-1945). One of the great innovators in twentieth-century painting, Delaunay anticipated many of the current trends in art. His explorations of the interactions of colors and the visual effects of light, which he inaugurated more than sixty years ago, prepared the way for Op Art, and his later works prefigure hard-edge painting."
