Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler by Pablo Picasso

This oil on canvas portrait exemplifies the analytical phase of Cubism, characterized by fragmented forms and a monochromatic palette that challenges traditional representation. The subject, Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, was a prominent art dealer and early supporter of Picasso, playing a crucial role in the promotion of Cubist artists.

This work not only solidified Picasso's reputation as a leading avant-garde artist but also marked a pivotal moment in the evolution of modern art.
