Information: This sending refers to the famous poem by Cendrars "She has a body on the dress", whose initial title is "First simultaneous dress", published in the spring of 1914 in the Monjoie magazine. This poem appears in the present work: "The stars dig the sky / The colors undress / 'She has a body on the dress'". By dating it to 1912, Sonia Delaunay remembers poorly, since she only met Cendrars in 1913: 1912 is the year she started the simultaneous fabrics. In 1968, she will recount: "I had already done collages on books and the Trans-Siberian, and this Simultaneous Dress was in perfect harmony with our art of the moment".
