| Still Life with Musical Instruments, 1918 Georges Braque French, 1882-1963 Oil on canvas 25-1/2 x 36-1/4 in. (64.8 x 92.1 cm) Norton Simon Art Foundation M.1986.2.P © 2011 Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York / ADAGP, Paris Reproduction, including downloading of ARS works is prohibited by copyright laws and international conventions without the express written permission of Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York On view After his return from military service in 1917, Georges Braque devised his own freer, more decorative application of the Cubist idiom. Here the red polka dots, playful wood graining and musical notes scratched into the surface move Braque from the intellectual vision of his earlier paintings to a more tactile, sensuous experience. Appropriately, this delightful composition was formerly in the collection of dancer and choreographer Léonide Massine. View Provenance
