Françoise Lucbert, extract from the catalogue *Collection art graphique* – The Centre Pompidou Collection, 2008: *Bar du port* presents an original synthesis between the analytical Cubism of the Picasso–Braque duo and the language – at once more legible and more decorative – of the Cubists exhibiting in the Parisian Salons from 1910 onwards. It was, in fact, during the period of these first collective exhibitions of Cubism that Marcoussis met Apollinaire and Braque, who introduced him to Picasso. ”
