Houses on the hill 1909

"Houses on the Hill," painted in 1909 by Pablo Picasso, exemplifies the artist's early exploration of Cubism. This oil painting, notable for its geometric forms, depicts a hillside village rendered in fragmented planes and angular shapes. The composition is a departure from traditional perspective, showcasing a flattened space and multiple viewpoints simultaneously. The use of muted browns, yellows, and greens further emphasizes the abstract nature of the subject matter. Picasso's Cubist approach challenges viewers to engage with the visual world in a new way, questioning the boundaries of representation and perception.
