Woman in Green
Pablo Picasso Spanish
Not on view
After celebrating New Year's Eve of 1901 in Barcelona, Picasso moved to Madrid, where he intended to stay for at least one year to work on two new publications: Arte joven and Notas d'arte. While there, he created more than a dozen pictures depicting women dressed to the nines in cheap confections that announce the wearer as a performer-theatrical, sexual, or both. Related paintings shown at Picasso's first exhibition in Paris, at the Galerie Vollard, such as the Woman in Profile (MMA 1999.363.58), may have been made in Madrid as well.
