Figure with fruit dish 1924

"Figure with fruit dish" is a Cubist painting by Pablo Picasso from 1924. It is a prime example of Picasso's stylistic development in the early 20th century. The composition is fragmented and geometric, with a figure composed of angular shapes and a fruit bowl depicted in a distorted, almost abstract form. Picasso's Cubist style, characterized by the breakdown of objects into geometric shapes, influenced the entire course of modern art. The painting is an exploration of form, space, and the representation of reality through the lens of abstraction, marking a turning point in Picasso's artistic journey.
