Georges Braque - Mandoline à la partition (Le Banjo) (1941)

 Upbeat colors may allude to the events of the day, but Braque often incorporated startling effects of color contrast into the magnificent still lifes he painted in the late 1930s. John Golding states: “At the outbreak of World War II, Braque was at the peak of his maturity and internationally recognized as one of the greatest living French artists.” “The still lifes executed in the second half of the 1930s are among the most complete and sumptuous in the entire French canon. Braque expanded his iconographic range by producing a series of interiors decorated with still lifes, many of which refer to the attributes of the artist's studio.”(Christie's, New York - Oil on canvas, 107.7 x 89.1 cm)
