O obrazu
Georges Braque painted The Crystal Vase in 1929 for Paul Rosenberg’s Paris dining room; it is now in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. Four paintings hung on separate walls, echoed by floor mosaics. This one differs in its thin beige, grey and orange washes and the arrangement of objects within a long rectangle. Cubist forms accompany references to Chardin and Cézanne. When Rosenberg sold the apartment in 1949, the four canvases went their separate ways and the mosaics were turned into tabletops.
Slovy muzea
This still life is one of four paintings commissioned from Georges Braque by collector Paul Rosenberg for his home at 21 rue de la Boetie in Paris. Each painting hung on a separate wall of the dining room, and mosaics based on the paintings were inlaid in the floor, creating a remarkably harmonious grouping known as the "Rosenberg Quartet." When Rosenberg sold his apartment in 1949, the paintings were dispersed (another work from the series is at the Phillips Collection, Washington, DC) and the mosaics were converted to tabletops. Crystal Vase is unique among the group for its color scheme—comprising thin washes of muted beiges, grays, and oranges—and for its elegant placement of objects within the challenging elongated rectangular space. The painting combines Braque’s Cubist style of the 1920s with homages to his French forebears Jean-Baptiste Siméon Chardin and Paul Cézanne.
