Description:
|
This belongs to the series of Musketeers that Picasso painted from 1966 to the end of his life. Highly stylized figures which Picasso depicted with a bright, vibrant palette, these seventeenth century characters are inspired by a lifelong love of masquerade and represent a return to his childhood visions as well as to his Spanish roots. At this late period in his life the artist appears to be in dialogue with the Baroque. This so-called Head of a Musketeer is a reinterpretation of the brilliant Triple Portrait of Cardinal Richelieu painted about 1642 by Philippe de Champaigne.
