FRANCISCO BORES

(1898-1972)

Spanish-painter, mainly active in France, and widely recognized as one of the leading 20th century Spanish artists.
Influenced by the Spanish master, Juan Gris, Bores' most chrachteristic works show influence from Cubism, but reflect his personalized style of pastel colored backgrounds and familiar objects with a black outline.
Prior to the Second World War, Bores was widely recognized as the leading figure of the École de Paris.
