About this artwork
Juan Gris painted this still life in 1913, working in oil on canvas. The subject is a violin and playing cards resting on a table, an everyday arrangement of objects. Still life was a typical motif for the Cubists, and Gris, a Spanish painter who worked mostly in France, approached it in that spirit. The painting is now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
On your wall: Its still-life subject and Cubist structure suit a study, living room or hallway where a modern, abstract piece can sit comfortably beside more traditional furnishings.
