MEASUREMENTS:21"HX26"W FRAMED, MINT CONDITION/"in the style of"Emil Filla, a Moravian painter, was a leader of the avant-garde in Prague between World War I and World War II and was an early Cubist painter.Filla was a member of the group Osma (The Eight) in 1907–1908, which had commonalities with the Fauves and also had direct ties to the German Expressionist group Die Brücke. Important works by Filla from this period include Reader of Dostoevsky (1907) and Chess Players (1908). In 1909, he became a member of the Mánes Union of Fine Arts.Beginning in 1910 he painted primarily in a Cubist style, strongly influenced by Picasso and Braque, and produced works such as Salome (1911) and Bathers (1912). He also began to paint many still lifes around that time. In 1911, he edited several issues of Volné smery, promoting Cubism and publishing reproductions of works by Picasso. After both readers and the leaders of Mánes reacted negatively, he and others withdrew from Mánes and founded Skupina výtvarných umelcu (the Group of Visual Artists), which was a Cubist-oriented group./Private collection, no documentation.
