The Drunk Man 1914

Alberto Magnelli's 1914 painting "The Drunk Man" is a prime example of Cubist style. The artwork depicts a man, rendered in simplified, geometric shapes, holding a bottle and a glass of wine. The figure is placed against a background of bold, geometric planes of color, emphasizing the fragmented, abstract nature of the composition. The painting's bold, flat colors and simplified forms are characteristic of the Cubist movement, which sought to break down traditional representational art and explore the fragmented nature of perception. The flattened perspective and the fragmented composition highlight the influence of Cubism on Magnelli's work.
