Artists have various way of presenting their feelings, ideas and perception to the public.

Some of the ways are drawing and painting. What is portrayed in paint is exactly what the people

admire, feel or think about an issue that can be presented or solved in a unique way. For the

purpose of this paper, I will analyze, compare and contrast ‘Landscape at L’Estaque’ by George

Braque and ‘Checker board’ by Juan Gris.

Landscape at L’Estaque

Artist: Georges Braque

Title: Landscape at L'Estaque

Surname 2

Origin: France

Date: 1906

Medium: Oil on canvas

Inscriptions: Signed, l.l.: "G. Braque"

Dimensions: 60.3 × 72.7 cm (23 3/4 × 28 5/8 in.)

Reference Number: 1981.65

Landscape at L’Estaque was an art by George Braque (French 1882-1963) in 1906. Braque did

this art after visiting French Mediterranean Coast. He was influenced by the work of Paul

Cezanne. He used the art of Cezanne to show distorted perspectives, faceted brushwork and

colors that structured his view of a tree lined road. He was able to mix reds, yellows and oranges

to show turbulent heat. The importance of this art was to continue with the work of Cezanne in

showing the heat that harnessed the area despite the availability of trees. This art was essential in

showing the beauty of the land as well as the structures that were being made. From this art, it is

hard to be angry as the artist used bright colors which show continuity, connection and Braque’s

ability to live during Cubism period.

Surname 3

Juan Gris was a (Spanish (1887-1927) ‘The Checkerboard’

Artist: Juan Gris

Title: The Checkerboard

Origin: Spain

Date: 1915

Medium: Oil on canvas

Dimensions: 92.1 × 73 cm (36 1/4 × 28 7/8 in.)

Credit Line: Ada Turnbull Hertle Endowment; gift of Mrs. Leigh B. Block

Reference Number: 1956.16

Juan Gris was a (Spanish (1887-1927) painter who painted ‘The Checkerboard’ in 1915. In this

art work, the viewer is able to see the unique work of Gris by dominant shapes like rectangles

and triangles. His work was important in showing how colors can be used to make people think

and do calculations in an abstract way.

Both Braque and Gris, they used colors that portrayed their uniqueness. They were able to

impress the people by their style of painting. However, the ways they are doing their painting

depict them as cubists as they wanted to revolutionalize art work during cubism period. Also,

they wanted their art to be analyzed from different point of views.

The only difference between the two art works is that Braque was impressing and wanted his

audience to feel the environment in his town while Gris wanted his audience to open up their

mind (intellectually) and come up with different ways of doing abstract things.
