Naturaleza Muerta Con Tijeras 1917

"Naturaleza Muerta Con Tijeras," created in 1917 by Spanish artist María Blanchard, is a striking example of Cubist still life. Blanchard, known for her geometric compositions and bold use of color, depicts a collection of objects, including scissors and a box, in fragmented, angular forms. The painting embodies the Cubist movement's exploration of multiple perspectives and the breakdown of traditional representation. Though the subject is everyday objects, Blanchard's abstract treatment imbues it with a sense of dynamism and visual complexity, making it an intriguing and impactful artwork.
