Notes

Few other artists have made women such a central part of their vision. Picasso drew upon those who were closest to him, forcing them as models to give themselves up to his acute eye. As observed by John Berger,'the relationship is nearly always sensual, even when the pre-occupation of the subject (as here) may not be'.

Presented by the Public Picture Gallery Fund with assistance from the Victoria and Albert Museum Purchase Grant Fund, 1970.
