about Still Life with Harp
A cubist still life in dark and pastel colors.
A harp and a vase sits on a table by Benjamin Benno. From 1953 this pastel on paper is mounted board and is signed by the artist. By the early 1930s he had established a reputation as a member of the international avant-garde and exhibited with the most significant European artists including Paul Klee, Max Ernst, Wassily Kandinsky, Salvador Dalí, Joan Miró, Hans Arp, and Fernand Léger. Pablo Picasso sponsored Benno’s first one-man show in Paris in 1934.
