Em "Fruit Dish, Ace of Clubs, Paris, 1913", um cacho de uvas, cartas de jogar e partes de instrumentos musicais parecem ter sido colocados na tela por acaso, embora, na realidade, a composição tenha sido cuidadosamente construída. Braque mostra uma mesa redonda, vista de cima. Contudo, a gaveta parece ter sido pintada de frente, tal como os ases de paus e de copas, em cima. O cacho de uvas pare flutuar na superfície e encontram-se letras espalhadas pela composição. Ao invés de recriar a ilusão de um espaço real na tela plana, através do recurso à perspectiva, luz e sombra, Braque sugeriu tridimensionalidade e profundidade ao mostrar simultaneamente a vista do topo e do lado da mesa. Incluiu também elementos pintados de forma a parecerem madeira sugerindo novamente uma forma real por detrás do plano do quadro. Junto com Picasso, Braque inventou o Cubismo em 1907, um movimento revolucionário que desafiava a abordagem tradicional à representação do espaço numa superfície bidimensional, abrindo caminho para a abstracção. Georges Braque nasceu em Argenteuil-sur-Seine (FR) em 1882 e morreu em Paris em 1963.
