Glass and Carafe by Juan Gris is a remarkable Cubist still life that transforms simple objects into a complex arrangement of geometric shapes and angles. The piece exemplifies Gris’ signature style, where everyday items like a glass and carafe are broken down into planes and facets that challenge traditional perspectives. Gris' use of muted tones and subtle shading creates a sense of depth, while the careful positioning of the objects creates a harmonious balance within the composition. The painting invites viewers to engage intellectually with the structure and symbolism of the still life.
