Playing Cards and Siphon 1916 — Fine Art

Playing Cards and Siphon 1916 by Juan Gris shows a table surface built from flat colour planes and clear outlined forms. A siphon bottle and scattered playing cards sit in a still life arrangement, with weight resting on the lower right and open space above. The composition moves in a calm forward way.

The fine art print comes ready to hang. A metal hanger is fitted to the back, so the print goes straight onto a nail or screw on the wall. You do not need a frame. The matte surface keeps the lighter planes quiet and stops shine under room light.

It suits a study wall near a desk lamp. From the doorway you take in the card shapes first, then the bottle outline as you step closer to the picture.
