Currently on display through February 16, 2015 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art is The Leonard A. Lauder Collection: Braque, Gris, Leger, Picasso. I was captivated by the work of Juan Gris,1887-1927and wanted to share a bit about the artist, a spanish painter and sculptor born in Madrid and who lived and worked in France most of his life. In 1906 he moved to Paris and became friends with Henri Matisse, Georges Braque and Fernand Leger. While in Paris, he befriended Picasso.
