Composition 1916

"Composition" is a Cubist artwork by Henri Laurens from 1916. The work features abstract geometric shapes arranged in a dynamic composition, characteristic of the Cubist movement. The shapes are primarily black, white, and gray with a light green form on the left side. The flatness of the composition and the use of fragmented shapes evoke a sense of abstraction and challenge traditional notions of perspective. The work exemplifies Laurens's contribution to the Cubist movement, which explored the breakdown of forms and the representation of multiple perspectives.
