One
of the

(Caption)
; Of the
Cubist
paintings
,
one
in
particular
,
Still
Life
(1924)
-
also
known
as
Syphon
and
Bottle
of
Rum-
riveted
the
attention
of
public
and
critics
alike
.
It
owed
an
obvious
debt
to the
Italian
'Metaphysicals'
,
particularly
Morandi
,
whose
work
Salvador
had
first
admired
in
Valori
Plastici
. Not
everyone
approved
of the
painting
,
though
.
'It
represents
a
meal
after
it's
been
eaten,'
observed
the
satirical
review
Buen
Humor
.
'The
pears
left
over
were
too
green
to be
consumed
-
consult
the
painting
; and if
there's
only
half
a
bottle
left
it's
because
they
drank
the
rest.'
Lorca
sent
the
cutting
to
Dali
,
who
had
returned
to
Catalunya
, with the
comment
:
'My
impression
is
that the
author
is
Manuel
Abril
.
It's
not the
least
bit
funny.'
