Andrew Michael Dasburg was an American modernist painter and "one of America's leading early exponents of cubism". Born in Paris and raised in New York City, he trained at the Art Students League of New York before traveling to Paris, where he encountered the work of Paul Cézanne and became deeply influenced by Cubism.
He became an ardent promoter of the Cubist style and exhibited at the landmark 1913 Armory Show, where his three Cubist-oriented oils were considered "daringly experimental".
