The Cubist Epoch

About this book

Cubism was one of the most important and influential movements in twentieth-century art. In the eight years between 1906 and 1914 Cubism - Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque in particular - was to change the technique and form of painting radically and for ever. Originating in Paris the movement became a truly international force and one with a profound impact on human visual experience. This book illustrated with over 300 photographs presents a vivid personal evocation of Cubism as a historic and aesthetic force.
