Picasso Ingres (Paperback)

Descripción:

Paperback. An exploration of the fascinating parallels and differences between Picassos Woman with a Book and Ingress Madame Moitessier This publication examines, in detail, two extraordinary interrelated works: Picassos Woman with a Book (1932) and Ingress Madame Moitessier (184456). Each painting is explored in depth, illuminating the parallels and differences between the artists techniques and creative ambitions. The first essay tells the story of the twelve-year gestation of Ingress Madame Moitessier, focusing on the role of drawings in the elaboration of the composition, and of the sitter herself in determining how she was to be presented. The second essay traces the development of Picassos Woman with a Book, among the most celebrated likenesses of the artists young lover, Marie-Therese Walter. In contrast to Ingress work, it was painted in just a day or two. The final essay explores, through these two works, the artists shared interest in the relationship between nude and clothed bodies, revealing the depth of Picassos engagement with Madame Moitessier, which motivates and animates Woman with a Book. An exploration of the fascinating parallels and differences between Picassos Woman with a Book and Ingress Madame Moitessier Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
