The Large Glass

The Large Glass, also called "The Bride of the Wind," is an artwork by Marcel Duchamp created between 1915 and 1923. It consists of two glass panels with intricate, abstract images and scattered objects embedded within. The piece invites viewers to interpret themes of desire, chance, and the complex relationship between sex and society. Duchamp's use of unconventional materials and techniques challenged traditional art, making The Large Glass a pioneering example of modernist and conceptual art. Its ambiguity and layered symbolism encourage personal reflection rather than a single definitive meaning.
