The Fruit Bowl

The Fruit Bowl is an early 20th century drawing by Juan Gris. The work was produced as part of a collaboration between Gris and Pierre Reverdy to commission a book filled with lithographs made from the former's paintings. The project was interrupted by the onset of World War I in 1914 and never finished. Reverdy composed a poem titled "The Fruit Bowl" to accompany the painting. Gris' work is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
