Picasso's Head of Woman
32" x 46" in
(81 x 116 cm)
Size: 31.69" in x 45.47" in
This work by Pablo Picasso is much more than a mere representation of the female form. Carved from plaster and wood, the Head of Woman embodies the meeting of love, inspiration, and art. Picasso, residing in his Boisgeloup château, explores the sensuality of his young mistress and muse, Marie-Thérèse Walter, through a sculptural language that is both fluid and monumental.
The face, composed of three plaster shells, reflects both the influence of African masks and the majesty of prehistoric goddesses. This blend of styles and cultures endows the sculpture with a timeless, almost mythical power, where femininity is exalted. The prominent nose, almond-shaped eyes, and generous forms are strong signs, symbols of fertility and vitality, elevating Marie-Thérèse's figure to that of a modern goddess.
