Picasso was thought to have started Cubism but actually Georges Braque developed this African inspired style of art in the early 1900's. Picasso painted Les Demoiselles d'Avignon in 1907 depicting women figures in the characteristic features of cubism. The figures are geometically broken apart in abstration and recreated in a three dimentional expression.
