Jean Metzinger is a German and French artist, known for Still life, figure, and landscape painting. Jean Metzinger, a native of Nantes, went to Paris in 1903 and over the next few decades established himself internationally as a painter of still lives, figures and landscapes based on the neo-impressionist style and form of divisionism, or as it was to become known, Cubism. His early works were influenced by Serat and in 1905 he developed a close friendship with Robert Delaunay, who was also painting in the divisionist style. Metzinger met Picasso between 1909 and 1910 and in 1910 he published an article discussing the Cubism works of both Picasso and Braque. One of a kind artwork.
