Jean Metzinger (1883–1956) was a painter, theorist, and a central figure of Cubism alongside Picasso and Braque. Co-author of the manifesto *Du Cubisme * (1912), he played a pivotal role in the evolution of modern art. His work, based on structure, color, and multiple viewpoints, finds a natural resonance in textiles, where composition and rhythm take on a tactile and decorative dimension.
