Description:
|
In 1927, Picasso met 17-year-old Marie-Thérèse Walter (1909-1977) and began a secret affair with her, while still married to his wife Olga. This was sculpted in Boisegeloup in 1931 and a single bronze cast was made. Picasso was nearly 50 when, in June 1930, he bought the Château de Boisgeloup, hidden away in Normandy, about 45 miles northwest of Paris. (Source: Le Fur, Yves, ed.; Through the Eyes of Picasso: Face to Face with African and Oceanic Art, Paris: Editions Flammarion, 2017 (978-2-08-020319-9))
