Weber (1881-1961), who was born in Poland but came with his family permanently to the U.S., settling in Brooklyn, was among the most avant-garde American artists of the early 20th century. He travelled to Paris around 1908-09 just in time to witness the emergence of Cubism, returning to New York in 1909 to become America's foremost Cubist painter, before abandoning Cubism in the early 1920s to pursue a more representational style.
