Picasso's cubism can be viewed as a reaction to the Impressionists.  While they focused on brush strokes, he focused on volume.  This photograph was made from the third floor of the Picasso Museum in  Paris.  The thick and wavy glass, together with all of its imperfections, account for the abstraction.  Some of the photographs that I made while visiting the museum are reflections in plexiglass-glass display cases of the views from the windows.  The building was just as interesting as the collections and exhibits that it houses.
