O obrazie
Pablo Picasso painted Head in 1926; it is in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. Red and tan shapes at the centre form profiles facing opposite directions, each supplied with an eye. Another eye at the left permits a frontal reading, combining viewpoints within one face. The features resemble Marie-Thérèse Walter, but she probably did not sit for this picture. Picasso only met her in January 1927, after its date, despite the similarity between the painted woman and his later lover.
Opis muzeum
The woman’s head in this painting contains multiple perspectives, most notably seen in the opposing profiles formed by the red and tan forms in the center, each with its own eye. A third eye appears on the left side of the face which can be read as a frontal view. While the woman’s features resemble those of Picasso’s lover, Marie Thérèse Walter, she was probably not the model since they did not meet until January 1927. The contrast in style between this painting and Picasso’s Head of a Boy (1905–6) is a testament to the artist’s boundless creativity.
