Description:

Painted during one of two short stays in Madrid. Having shown the painting at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Madrid in 1901 where it received only an honorable mention, Pablo Picasso decided not to pick the painting up when the event closed. Decades later the picture was found by Enrique Lafuente Ferrari, the director from 1954 of what was then called the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo, so the painting became part of the State collections. Pío Baroja commented, "When he was in Madrid, Pablo Picasso had taken a studio near the Calle Zurbano, where he spent his time painting women from memory with a certain Parisian air, and round, rosebud mouths. Picasso was a keen-eyed man, with an ironic, mocking smile." (Source: Museo Reina Sofia [website]; https://www.museorei nasofia.es/en/)
