In late 1906, Picasso started to paint in a truly revolutionary manner.

He began to show space in

strongly geometrical terms.

His efforts at developing

an almost

sculptural sense of space

is the start of

Cubism.

Was he drawing his pictures?

or almost chiseling them

out, like a sculpter?

Manuel Parelles 1909 (portrait)

By 1910, Picasso and Braque had developed Cubism into an entirely new way of drawing pictures.

Objects were

de-

con-

struc-

ted

into their components.

In other works, CUBISM was used as a way to visually lay out the FACTS of the object, rather than just draw a picture of something
