Catalogue Note
“In the early days Gertrude Stein brought Juan Gris to my studio. He came prepared to be photographed with a high white stiff collar, as if for a family portrait. … I liked his painting for its simpler, starker quality in contrast with the works of the more famous innovators of Cubism.” (Self Portrait, 1988, p. 206)
