Joseph Stella (1877 – 1946) was an Italian-American painter who created works of art depicting urban architecture, modern life, and religious themes. His work is largely associated with the Futurist and American Precisionist art movements. Stella often utilized bold, saturated colors and filled his canvases with busy, flowing compositions. He painted many iconic visions of the Brooklyn Bridge in his exploration of industrial America. Stella was also very good friends with the influential artists, Marcel Duchamp and Albert Gleizes.
