Dead Frenchmen...The Saga Continues

Don't you judge me, Georges Braque...you have no right!

Today's Dead Frenchman goes by the name of Georges Braque. M. Braque was one of the founders of cubism and was of course vastly overshadowed by Picasso, who was a real dick about it. Me, I like Braque more than Picasso, who's work is less rewarding after long study, and it's a real shame that Braque's work has been largely overlooked by the general public. Also, Braque had the good sense to avoid appearing in public in tight t-shirts and a neckercheif...neither was he portrayed by Anthony Hopkins, (whose appearance as Pablo Picasso on film acheived the dreaded synthesis of Spaniard and Welshman...widely acknowledged as the deadliest combination known ever since Llewellyn Obregon-Sanchez stormed the gates of heaven itself with a muzzle-loader hell bent on assassinating God.)

Braque on the other hand would become so well respected that the Louvre did an exhibition of his work in 1961...the first ever exhibition of a living artist at that museum.
