Juan Gris was born on March 23, 1887 in Madrid, Spain. He passed away at the young age of 40 on May 11, 1927. He left behind a wife, Josette, and a son, Georges.

One of his pieces of art sold for $28.6 million in November 2010. But he did live when another piece of his art sold for $20.8 million in 1915. Which would likely be valued at $472.4 million today, with inflation.
