La Pastiche Harlequin Juan Gris Gold Wood Framed 28-in H x 32-in W Abstract Canvas Hand-Painted Painting

Harlequin is a colorful cubist painting by Spanish artist, Juan Gris. Today it has been reproduced with exceptional use of color, detail and brush strokes. In 1906, Gris left Spain for Paris where he worked as an illustrator and satirical cartoonist. In 1911 he began to paint seriously and developed his own style of cubism. Unlike Picasso and Braque, Gris liked to paint with bright harmonious colors. Harlequin was originally painted in 1918 and is now housed in a private collection. With their bright colors and interesting subject matter Juan Gris works are among the most distinctive among the cubist movement. Frame Description: Victorian Gold Frame
