{"product_id":"guitar-on-a-table-juan-gris","title":"Guitar on a Table - Juan Gris","description":"\u003cp\u003eA classic example of Synthetic Cubism by Juan Gris, featuring a deconstructed guitar rendered through geometric planes and a controlled, rhythmic composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJuan Gris, a central figure in the development of Synthetic Cubism, produced this work during a period of rigorous formal experimentation. Unlike the fragmented, monochromatic approach of early Analytical Cubism, this composition employs a more structured, architectural method of layering. The guitar, a recurring motif in the artist's oeuvre, is deconstructed into geometric planes that overlap and intersect across the picture surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painting demonstrates the artist's interest in the relationship between the object and the space it occupies. The blue guitar body is flattened, with its sound hole and strings rendered as graphic elements that defy traditional perspective. Gris balances these abstract forms against the tactile representation of the wooden table, which is depicted with a simulated grain texture. The surrounding areas incorporate patterned elements, such as the dotted borders and the chequered floor, which serve to anchor the composition while simultaneously flattening the pictorial depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy 1920, Gris had moved away from the more chaotic fragmentation of his earlier works, opting instead for a clarity of form and a deliberate, calculated arrangement of shapes. The colour palette is restrained, relying on the contrast between the cool blue of the instrument and the warm, earthy tones of the table. This work reflects the artist's analytical approach to painting, where the act of creation is a process of synthesis rather than imitation. The result is a balanced, rhythmic arrangement that invites the viewer to reconstruct the subject from its constituent parts, demonstrating the intellectual rigour that defined his contribution to the modern movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/still-life-with-a-guitar-georges-braque\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eStill Life with a Guitar by Georges Braque\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/glass-of-absinthe-and-cigarette-pablo-picasso\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eGlass of Absinthe and Cigarette by Pablo Picasso\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/juan-gris\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eJuan Gris artwork →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Juan Gris","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139452535119,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139460497743,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139460530511,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139460563279,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139460596047,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139460628815,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139460661583,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139460694351,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139460727119,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139460759887,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139460792655,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139460825423,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139460858191,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139460890959,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139460923727,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139460956495,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139460989263,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139461022031,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139461054799,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139461087567,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Guitar-on-a-Table_Poster_CompositorV1_1792125971375.jpg?v=1792210878","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/guitar-on-a-table-juan-gris","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
