Georges Braque..

Georges Braque….co-pioneer of cubism (with Pablo Picasso), often overshadowed by Picasso because of his fame. His paintings produced a monochromatic “fractured view of space” that represented view different perspectives at the same time of mostly inanimate objects in simultaneity. The subject in the painting were to be are up to the fourth dimensions in space-time continuum. This concept is irrevocably similar to “general relativity” in physics. “Man with guitar” is considered his one of his masterpieces…(exemplifies analytic cubism).
