Bruce, Patrick Henry Patrick Henry Bruce (March 25, 1881 – November 12, 1936) was an American cubist painter. A descendant of Patrick Henry, Bruce was born in Campbell County, Virginia, the second of four children. His family had once owned a huge plantation worked by 3,000 slaves, but the Civil War had left their wealth greatly diminished. Bruce began taking evening classes at the Art Club of Richmond in 1898, while working in a real estate office during the daytime. His earliest known extant painting dates from 1900. In 1902 he moved to New York, where he studied with William Merritt Chase, Robert Henri, and Kenneth Hayes Miller. By February 1904 he was in Paris, where he would live until 1933. Although his evolution toward a modernist style was gradual, his works of 1908 reveal the influence of Renoir and Cézanne, and in that year he was among the first to enroll in Matisse's school. Bruce exhibited regularly in the Salon d'Automne, and met many of the leading artists of the early twentieth century avant garde. During a period of close friendship with Sonia and Robert Delaunay in 1912–14 his paintings were influenced by Orphism, but Bruce never formed an attachment to any school. Although art historians have sometimes linked him to the Synchromists, he never exhibited with the Synchromists, adopted their theories or gave his paintings Synchromist titles. Intensely self-critical, Bruce destroyed a great many of his paintings, and only about one hundred works remain. His death was by suicide, in New York City in 1936. - wikipedia
