Cubism is based much less on the expression of emotion than it is an intellectual experiment with structure.

Around 1909, Picasso and Braque began a more systematic study of structure which we know as "Analytical Cubism".

The paintings of the Analytical Cubism period look as if they have deconstructed objects and rearranged them on the canvas.

Picasso: Ambroise Voilard, 1910

Page 7: Cubism

One goal of Analytic Cubism is to depict

different viewpoints

simultaneously. Traditionally, an

object is always viewed from one

specific viewpoint and at one specific

moment in time.

Picasso: The Mandolin, 1910

Braque, Violin

Picasso and Braque felt that one viewpoint was too limiting, and desired to represent an object as if they were viewing it from several angles or at different moments in time.
