Portrait of Igor Stravinsky

Albert Gleizes · 1914

This is Albert Gleizes's Portrait of Igor Stravinsky, nineteen fourteen. Gleizes was, with Metzinger, the author of the first book-length account of Cubism — a theorist as much as a painter, which shows in how systematically the composition is worked out.
