Context:
Juan Gris moved from his native Madrid to the Montmartre district of Paris in 1906. He settled in the studios of the Bateau-Lavoir, the building where Pablo Picasso and many other poor, immigrant artists lived. Gris began painting in a cubist style around 1910, developing a highly refined approach that emphasized sharply defined forms and austere, geometric structure. After 1915, his compositions became more complex, and his color richer, as seen in the lavender, sky blues, and olive greens of this painting. A coffee mill with a white handle, a bottle, and a wine glass are depicted on a table covered with a green cloth. To provide greater textural variety, Gris rendered the base of the coffee mill in a simulated wood grain pattern that relates the painted image to the real object.
