Description:
|
Created in Vallauris in October of 1951. This is the original assemblage from which bronze copies were later cast. Her face was formed from two toy cars, one upright, the other turned upside down that Picasso had borrowed from his son Claude, and her tail was an automobile spring. The baboon's ears were made from cup handles, and her round belly was a large jug whose handles form the shape of her shoulders. As a sculptor, Picasso pioneered the technique of assemblage, constructing works partly or entirely of "found" objects, both natural and man-made.
