格特鲁德·斯泰因

1905–6年

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 908

斯泰因在毕加索位于巴黎的工作室里为这幅著名的肖像画做模特，她庞大的身躯被一件温暖的棕色灯心绒外衣所遮盖。毕加索被这位美国作家敏锐的心思和潇洒的举止所打动，主动提出要给她画一幅肖像画。在1905年秋天，斯泰因开始多次给毕加索作模特，按照她的说法，她去了接近九十次，但鉴于毕加索作画向来迅速，这一说法未必可信。在1906年春天，毕加索对画中人的面部不满意，于是用颜料将其覆盖。那年秋天他回到巴黎，在没有和斯泰因见面的情况下创作了这张面具般的脸，其颇具古风的神态预示着新风格的来临，这种新风格是毕加索那年夏天在西班牙戈索逗留时酝酿出来的。毕加索大胆地将具有立体派雏形的头部嫁接到斯泰因那玫瑰时期风格的身体上，创作出一幅惊人的独特肖像。
