The oeuvre of the Danish artist Orla Muff is characterized by elegance and an unusually light-flooded color scale. His almost abstract compositions are committed to Art Deco and Cubism. In addition to painting, he also devoted himself to stage design; in the 1930s, for example, he carried out a number of commissioned works at theaters in Berlin.
