What does Portrait of Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler show?
In Portrait of Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler the figure almost dissolves into a mosaic of sharp planes, yet combed hair, eyes, a nose and folded hands emerge from them. This is Analytic Cubism, in which Picasso took the subject apart and showed it from several sides at once. Kahnweiler was Picasso’s dealer and one of the first supporters of Cubism; the original Portrait of Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler is in the Art Institute of Chicago.
