Introducing Stuart Davis...

Davis is generally considered to be the outstanding American artist to work in a Cubist idiom. He made witty and original use of it and created a distinctive American style, for however abstract his works became he always claimed that every image he used had its source in observed reality:

star I paint what I see in America, in other words I paint
             the American Scene.
