A round painting of overlapping coloured discs suggesting the sun and the moon spinning together. Delaunay loved how bright colours next to each other seem to vibrate.
Why it's great for language
Strong circles and colour contrasts — great for colours, shapes and comparing (brighter / darker).

Robert Delaunay's work fits colours, shapes, comparatives better than "present simple". Try one of those focuses, or pick another artist from the gallery.
