Violin Hanging on a Wall 1913

Juan Gris's "Violin Hanging on a Wall" from 1913 showcases the artist's mastery of Cubism, a movement that fragmented and reassembled objects in a geometric style. The composition is simplified, with the violin rendered in sharp, angular shapes and outlined in black. The background features a series of parallel lines, representing a wall, creating a sense of depth and spatial ambiguity. This Cubist masterpiece exemplifies the exploration of form, color, and space that characterized Gris's artistic approach.
