[[Image:Braque woman 400pix.jpg|thumb|200px|''Woman with a guitar'' by [[Georges Braque]], 1913.]]'''Cubism''' is a type of painting (school of art) in which normal shapes of people or other subjects are painted in geometric forms in an attempt to view multiple vantages within a single image - combining multiple views of one object into a coherent whole, styled in a manner intended to appeal to a certain frame of mind. The movement lasted from 1908 to 1914. Cubism could be called a "Fly's eye view of the world". The two types of Cubism are Analytical Cubism and Synthetic Cubism. Prominent Cubists were [[Picasso]], [[Braque]], [[Gris]], and [[Leger]].

'''Cubism''' is a type of painting (school of art) in which normal shapes of people or other subjects are painted in geometric forms in an attempt to view multiple vantages within a single image - combining multiple views of one object into a coherent whole, styled in a manner intended to appeal to a certain frame of mind. The movement lasted from 1908 to 1914. Cubism could be called a "Fly's eye view of the world". The two types of Cubism are ''Analytical Cubism'' and ''Synthetic Cubism''. Prominent Cubists were [[Pablo Picasso]], [[Georges Braque]] (1882 - 1963), [[Juan Gris]] (1887 - 1927) and [[Fernand Leger]] (1881 - 1955).
The famous "Demoiselles d'Avignon" is often represented as the seminal Cubist work. [http://www.artchive.com/artchive/P/picasso_protocubism.html Pablo Picasso]
