Description
Paris. 1932. The Face Seen From All Sides at Once.
In 1932, Picasso was fifty and at the peak of his powers. His portraits of this era — particularly those of Marie-Thérèse Walter — are among the most psychologically powerful images of the twentieth century. A face shown frontally and in profile simultaneously. Eyes that look in two directions. A nose that bends logic. Features rearranged not to describe what a person looks like but what it feels like to know them.
Picasso believed the portrait was the most honest form of art, because it forced the painter to confront another consciousness. He painted the same face hundreds of times and never painted it the same way twice.
