Cubism

                                                                               Artist: Thorvald Hellesen
Image: Suitor. Figure with Bouquet” 
painted in 1917-1918 (here)

The world of art unveils its grand design,
There appears a visionary, a maestro of the 
canvas, Thorvald Hellesen

The world presented in fragments 
an innovative form, in Cubism
Breaking boundaries, defying the norm,

In allowing for Thorvald's insistence
for the past and present to fuse 
into each other 
it creates an interplay to get 
the viewer to indulge 
in moments of puzzle-solving

Faces appear in fragmented glory,
Each angle tells a different story.
For the rave of the day then
a branch of abstract art 
emerges for acceptance

    Hank, very accurate about the angles in cubism, they speak their own language.
