Early Artistic Inclination: He first developed an interest in drawing at a boys' school in Guadalajara. This led him to study with Félix Bernardelli, who introduced him to Art Nouveau.
Formal Education: In 1903, he moved to Mexico City and briefly pursued architecture before attending the Academy of San Carlos. There, he studied drawing and history alongside notable artists like Diego Rivera, Ángel Zárraga, and Saturnino Herrán. His teachers included Leandro Izaguirre, Germán Gedovius, and Alberto Fuster.

European Influences and Artistic Development

Studies in Europe: In 1906, Montenegro won a competition to study in Europe. He spent time in Madrid at the Academy of San Fernando and later in Paris (1907-1910), where he encountered Cubism and met artists like Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque.
Cubist Influence: While exposed to Cubism, Montenegro did not fully adopt the style. Instead, he developed a unique approach blending Mexican folk art elements with European modernism.
Travels and Artistic Growth: His travels throughout Europe (London, Italy, Mallorca) broadened his artistic horizons and influenced his later work.
