Picasso "Female Nude with Arms Raised" 1907 in the Sainsbury Collection ; more interesting than Les Demoiselles D’Avignon
In the previous blog "Cézanne, Seurat and Beardsley arrived at the same technique", I wrote two conditions of modern art from the level of formalism: Constructing with only arcs of a few circles of different sizes creates harmony. Then the circles can be used to create a balanced structure. Picasso “Female Nude with Arms Raised” 1907 in the Sainsbury Collection Picasso “Female Nude with Arms Raised” arc-circle model According to the explanation of the museum that owns this work, it is a study for Les Demoiselles D'Avignon, But if you look at the work itself 、 this painting is more complete. Comments without a structural model don't make much sense. The model reminds me of Seurat's "Study of Model". Seurat "Study of the Model" Seurat "Study of the Model" arc-circle model.
