About the piece
Painted in 1916, this work by Juan Gris is a masterclass in Synthetic Cubism. It features a newspaper, glassware, and a compote bowl deconstructed into sharp, overlapping geometric planes of charcoal, umber, and ochre, creating a rhythmic and intellectual composition that is a signature of Gris's mature style.
