Teapot, on gray background (Théière sur fond gris)
Georges Braque
Description
Subject Matter:
Still life with teapot and fruit, executed in a late Cubist style. The emphasis is on a minimal representation of space and objects.
Physical Description:
Lithograph print on white paper. In the center, a very bulbous teapot, with a large conical mouth and protruding spout, is depicted in crude outline and filled in with patchy dark brown. To the right is a banana and the outline of an apple. A gray background fills the space around the objects and trails off into the white paper at the edges.
