Marcel Duchamp's Nude Descending A Staircase

I personally believe that Marcel Duchamp was a sincere and serious artist who produced legitimate works of art. Duchamp was a French artist who worked independently of the Futurists and also brought the dimension of motion to Cubism. He was influenced by stroboscopic photography, which caused him to create his Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2. This artwork included sequential camera images, which showed movement by freezing successive instants. This artist succeeded in his artwork by using sequential, diagonally placed, abstract references to the figure, the painting presents the movement of a body through space, seen all at once, in a single rhythmic progression. Due to all individual's sense of gravity, the feeling of motion is intensified.
