About the piece

Created in 1915, this work by Juan Gris is a definitive example of synthetic Cubism. The painting masterfully layers interior still life elements—including a bottle of Médoc and a copy of Le Journal—against the luminous, blue-washed trees of the Place Ravignan seen through an open window, creating a complex and rhythmic dialogue between the domestic and the urban.
