Roger de Fresnaye (1885-1924) was a French artist and sculptor linked to the Cubist movement. He was influenced by Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso, but his work has a more decorative than structural feel and his prismatic colours reflect the influence of Robert Delaunay. He was a member of the Puteaux Group, an orphist offshoot of cubism led by Jacques Villon. His most famous work is The Conquest of the Air, 1913, which depicts himself and his brother outdoors with a balloon in the background. He contracted tuberculosis during his military service, and was ill from 1918 onwards. ,
