Braque made this work in the early years of cubism, a painting approach he and Picasso developed together. The only clearly recognizable object in this still life is the pitcher at center, whose sides are made up of facets of color that fracture and radiate outward. The grouping of brushstrokes into geometric shapes reflects the renewed interest in the work of Cézanne, which was celebrated in Paris at a monumental retrospective held in 1907.
