Pablo Picasso, Femmes regardant par la fenetre, Linocut, 27x32,5 cm

"Femme regardant par la fenetre" belongs to the linocuts created by Pablo Picasso from 1958 to 1961. In this work we can see one of the most favourite subject from the cubism master for the linocuts: the bacchanals. This is the most high – spirited linocut's subject that serve as a vehicle for intense lines. The new appeal of Picasso's productions lines in their decorative and spirited character. The palette, for many of the linocuts, is limited to a rang of black – white tones. Basically Picasso produces the form and the depth of the immagine through printed progressed from light to dark ( generally the white paper was printed with a cream tone over all the surface) and than the black draw line build the real imagine. These lines characterize all the linocuts productions. This process give, both, a big three - dimensional effect and a full detailes image. The smoothness and the pliability of the linoleum makes all these possible. In this work we can see bedroom's interior, in front page, a decorated bedspread and, back, a woman looking out the window. This image is really dynamic, the effect is emphasize from the hair's woman and curtain's movement. The tones progressed from light brown to dark brown. This linocut belongs to the riedition from 1962.
