Juan Gris (1887–1927) was a Spanish painter and key figure in the development of Cubism. Born José Victoriano González-Pérez in Madrid, Gris moved to Paris in 1906, where he became associated with the avant-garde artistic circles. Influenced by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, Gris developed his unique style of Cubism, characterised by geometric forms, fragmented compositions, and a restrained palette.
