Renowned artist Georges Braque – famous for developing the artistic movement of Cubism with Pablo Picasso – was born on May 13, 1882 in the village of Argenteuil-sur-Seine near Paris, France. In 1890, Braque and his family moved to Le Havre, a port city in Normandy, where Braque initially followed in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, training to become a house painter and decorator. Braque’s interest in fine art, however, was piqued at an early age and while he learned the trade during the day, he studied at Le Havre’s École des Beaux-Arts at night.
