A glass — Fine Art

A glass by Pablo Picasso keeps the subject simple and direct. The work belongs to the cubist period and shows a drinking vessel broken into planes. Painted shapes overlap so the form reads from more than one angle at once. You notice the outline first, then the coloured fill inside each section.

This fine art print is ready to hang on arrival. The print comes with a frame in white, wood, dark wood or black. A white frame sits close to the painted lines and keeps the drawing area clear. A dark wood frame gives the cubist shapes a firm border on the sheet.

It works on the wall above the kitchen sink. From the breakfast table you read the tilted glass shape, and the painted planes stay settled under the ceiling light.
