'''Georges Braque''' (Argenteuil 1882 – 1963) was a [[French]] painter. He along with [[Pablo Picasso]] created [[cubism]].
<blockquote>
Around 1912, to avoid losing contact with the visible world which Cubism had veered towards, Braque began to paint some areas in trompe l'oeil, imitating marble or wood, drawing on the skills of the painter-decorator which he had learned from his father. Later, he went further in sticking labels onto his compositions, as well as pieces of wallpaper or cuttings from real newspapers. These papier collés became another of the revolutionary innovations introduced into modern art by Braque and Picasso.
