Design for Lilypond Table
Duncan Grant was the most individually varied of the Bloomsbury painters. In 1911 he emerged into sudden maturity. Around 1914 he evolved a personal blend of influences from Matisse and Cubism that resulted in a group of lyrical, sensuously painted domestic interiors and still lifes such as this one.
